Arsenal 'eye Freddie Woodman move'

Arsenal are reportedly preparing to battle Fulham for the signature of Newcastle United goalkeeper Freddie Woodman.

Woodman, 21, joined Newcastle from Crystal Palace in 2013 but has only made one first-team appearance for the Magpies, which came in the FA Cup last season.

The stopper has spent the majority of his professional career out on loan, with Hartlepool United, Crawley Town, Kilmarnock and Aberdeen all former clubs of the England Under-21 international.

According to Chronicle Live, both Arsenal and Fulham are watching Woodman, who will see his current deal with Newcastle expire at the end of next season.

Woodman was a part of the England Under-20 team that triumphed at the 2017 World Cup.
