Newcastle No1 Nick Pope is reportedly a target for Leeds United as they look to strengthen the spine of their team in the summer transfer window ahead of life in the Premier League.

- DOM HOWSON

The Whites are keen on signing the experienced Magpies shot-stopper, who is out of contract at the end of next season, while United have reportedly identified Burnley star James Trafford as a long-term replacement.

Pope joined Newcastle from the Clarets in the summer of 2022. He immediately established himself as United's first-choice shot-stopper, displacing the long-serving Martin Dubravka. The England international is approaching 100 appearances for the Magpies, and played a big part in Newcastle winning the Carabao Cup and securing Champions League qualification this term.

HEALTHY START

January is the right time for a reset. Nothing extreme, just food to help you feel good. Think fresh flavours, colourful plates and meals as nourishing as they are comforting. Soothing soups, vibrant salads and a spicy curry are on my menu plus, of course, the odd selection box chocolate which needs eating up!
