Overview
- Reports on Saturday put Newcastle ahead of Tottenham for the 23-year-old and call a summer switch increasingly likely.
- Trafford lost the No 1 spot at Manchester City after Donnarumma’s arrival last summer and he has said he wants regular games.
- Newcastle plan an overhaul of their goalkeepers, with uncertainty around whether Nick Pope or Aaron Ramsdale will stay next season.
- The England international made his senior debut against Uruguay on Friday, which heightens the need for steady club minutes before World Cup selection.
- Newcastle nearly signed him last summer before City used a buy-back clause, and Spurs are still understood to be in the chase.
