Rozehnal 'agrees' Magpies move
David Rozehnal's agent has claimed that an agreement is in place to take the
Paris Saint Germain defender to Newcastle.
The Magpies have been in negotiations with PSG in recent weeks, with manager
Sam Allardyce keen to strengthen his defence before the start of the new
season.
Reports suggested they were firm favourites to land the Czech Republic
international, especially after Borussia Dortmund withdrew their interest.
Rozehnal's representative Pavel Zika announced earlier on Friday that
Newcastle had a 50-50 chance of snapping up the player, with Sevilla the
other club in the running.
But Zika has now told the Czech Republic media that Newcastle have won the
race to sign Rozehnal.
"We have reached a final agreement. David moves to Newcastle," Zika told
Idnes.
Although Alardyce has made it known he is keen on Rozehnal, there has been
no announcement from Newcastle suggesting they are closer to bringing in the
player.
