NEWCASTLE'S search for a striker goes on - but they're finally close to landing the goalkeeper Rafael Benitez has been searching for all month.
Sparta Prague's Martin Dubrvaka is set to arrive on Tyneside in a season-long loan deal.
Dubravka is a Slovakia international, and while Sparta had initially been reluctant to allow him to leave on loan this month, it appears as though a deal has been agreed.
Dubravka's arrival will see Freddie Woodman leave Newcastle on loan, with the youngster set to move north of the border to join Scottish Premier League side Aberdeen.
