Newcastle 'want £20m for Krul'

Newcastle United will reportedly tell potential buyers that they must pay £20m to prise Dutch goalkeeper Tim Krul away from the club.

The People claims that Tottenham Hotspur are among a host of teams looking at a possible move for the 26-year-old, as a potential replacement for Hugo Lloris.

While Lloris signed a five-year deal at Spurs in the summer, the Frenchman is believed to want Champions League football and is willing to leave to get it.

Krul is thought to be on the London club's radar, if they need to enter the transfer market next summer.

The Dutch keeper is currently out injured, while deputy Rob Elliott is also sidelined, giving youngster Jak Alnwick the chance to make his first Premier League start in the 4-1 defeat to Arsenal on Saturday.
