Sky Germany: Newcastle a possible destination for giant CB with exit 'as good as sealed'
Some intriguing new claims have emerged from Sky Germany this morning surrounding the future of Bayern Munich centre-back Niklas Sule.
They report that the big centre-back is all set to leave the Bundesliga giants after refusing to sign a new contract at the club.
His current deal is set to expire at the end of the season, but Sky Germany report that a January move to Newcastle United is a 'possible destination' for the 26-year-old, with his departure from Bayern 'as good as sealed.'
Sule has been linked with a move to Tyneside for a few months now, with BILD (a German outlet) and North-East reporter Liam Kennedy both crediting us with serious interest in the 6ft 5' defender among others.
Signing a full international with Champions League experience would be some coup in our current position, yet they do say money talks - and it makes you wonder if that's what he's after when he's failed to agree a new deal with Bayern.
With reported top defensive target James Tarkowski likely to be stuck at Burnley - who will be hugely reluctant to sell to a relegation rival - I wonder if we'll turn our attentions to Sule; a player who may be available at a cut-price fee given his contract situation?
