Newcastle ‘very confident’ over Lloyd Kelly signing after rival medical booked
Newcastle United are “very confident” about finalizing a deal to sign Lloyd Kelly this week, despite losing out on Tosin Adarabioyo to a late Chelsea offer, sources informed Football Insider. The north-east club has submitted an offer for the 25-year-old Kelly, with further negotiations expected throughout the week, aiming to complete the deal by Friday before his Bournemouth contract expires. Kelly, known for his versatility as both a centre-back and left-back, has become a priority signing for Newcastle, particularly given his availability on a free transfer amid the club’s financial constraints.
