Newcastle United have reportedly pivoted to Southampton goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale after James Trafford became the club’s latest unsuccessful transfer target.
Magpies manager Eddie Howe previously worked with Ramsdale during their time together at Bournemouth. This would represent a shift to a known quantity for Howe after Manchester City swooped in to close on a deal for Burnley’s Trafford. Newcastle were thought to be interested in the English shot-stopper before City began to seriously consider triggering his buy-back option.
