Wolverhampton Wanderers 'to sign Mike Williamson on loan'

Wolverhampton Wanderers will reportedly sign Newcastle United defender Mike Williamson on loan on Thursday.

The 31-year-old has not played in the Premier League this season for the Magpies, and according to the Express & Star, Williamson will head to the Championship club on a one-month loan deal.

Wolves are looking to add to their defensive options, with Kortney Hause and Ethan Ebanks-Landell out injured and Dominic Iorfa a doubt for Saturday's derby game against Birmingham City.

Williamson has made 150 appearances over five years at St James' Park, scoring one goal.
