00:05 made aware of negotiations for Newcastle United to sell French winger Alan St Maxman to the
00:11 Saudi Pro League, with Newcastle also then scheduling a medical for Maxman's replacement
00:17 from Leicester, Harvey Barnes.
00:19 Barnes, who scored 13 goals in a relegated Leicester side last year, very much fits the
00:24 mould of the type of player Eddie Howe wants at Newcastle United.
