Erik Huseklepp watched by Newcastle

Norwegian winger Erik Huseklepp is being watched by Newcastle United.

The Evening Chronicle says the 24-year-old, who currently stars for SK Brann, has been continually scouted by United despite the managerial changeover at St James's Park.

Newcastle were linked with Huseklepp during the transfer window in January but a bid never got off the ground as Joe Kinnear and Dennis Wise had differences in opinion over transfer targets.

A source in Brann said today: "The transfer would not be dependent on Newcastle remaining in the Premier Division."
