Newcastle United have agreed a deal with Preston North End to move Freddie Woodman to Deepdale. The former England Under-21 stopper spent last season on loan at AFC Bournemouth but the newly promoted side only used Woodman in the FA Cup.
The goalie is set to have a medical next week after agreeing a deal that could become permanent.
Woodman is once again in need of regular first-team action after starting last season between the posts for Newcastle due to an illness and injury crisis in the goalie department.
