Newcastle United - Tim Krul Wanted By Milan

Tim Krul wanted by Seedorf

AC Milan could be about to make an £8m offer to Newcastle United for goalkeeper Tim Krul. In what would be a Krul blow to Newcastle (forgive the pun) Seedorf is looking to make the Dutch stopper his first signing at the San Siro according to Metro .
.



The Italian side have been long time admirers of the Dutchman, Krul, 25, has been hailed as one of the most consistent goalkeepers in Europe by fellow Dutchman and former Manchester United keeper Edwin Van Der Sar,  he has also been courted by Napoli and Borussia Monchengladbach among others.


Krul has made 129 appearances for the Premier League club and has been at Newcastle since he was 17 after joining in 2005. He would be considered a great loss to the Toon Army.

Milan have been terrible this season and currently sit in 11th place in Serie A, could Krul be tempted by a mega move to Italy?

I seriously hope not, Newcastle United would struggle to find a stopper as good as him and with Rob Elliot waiting in the wings he wouldn't inspire confidence amongst the Toon support. The thought of Elliot as numero uno makes me a little bit sick in the mouth.


What do you think? What are the chances of Newcastle United doing business of any kind this window?
