Newcastle determined to prise Elliot from Charlton

Newcastle United remain keen on Charlton Athletic goalkeeper Rob Elliot.

The Daily Mail says Newcastle are set to try again for Elliot after their £100,000 offer was snubbed last week.

Elliot, 25, is in the last year of his contract at The Valley and could almost triple his wages to £12,000 a week on Tyneside.

The Magpies are going back in for Elliot after allowing back-up keeper Fraser Forster to return to Celtic for a second loan spell.

Elliot would have the opportunity of working again with Newcastle goalkeeping coach Andy Woodman, who made the move from the Addicks last season.
