Championship duo keen on Woodman?

Newcastle United goalkeeper Freddie Woodman has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for two clubs in the Championship.

Woodman is highly thought of at St James' Park, but the England Under-21 international faces the prospect of a fifth loan spell being spent away from the club.

According to The Chronicle, both Norwich City and Sheffield United are considering whether to make a loan approach for the 21-year-old.

Woodman has only played in League Two and the Scottish Premiership, and Newcastle are likely to welcome any chance for the stopper to play at the second tier.

Norwich require a new number one after Angus Gunn returned to parent club Manchester City, while Sheffield United find themselves in the same situation after Jamal Blackman went back to Chelsea.
