Given urges Newcastle to move for De Gea

Newcastle should move for David De Gea as a free agent goalkeeper signing.

The Magpies are in need of a shot stopper, as Nick Pope is out for several months with a shoulder problem.

The England keeper will not be available for most of this remaining season for the Magpies.

“I think any top club even even Chelsea tonight. I'd be looking at De Gea," Shay Given said of the former Manchester United keeper, who is a free agent.

“Newcastle will be looking at De Gea. I think all the clubs should be looking at De Gea. He had the most clean sheets last year in the Premier League.

“He had a couple of mistakes last year and people go "oh, he's gone." But I think he's only 33, he's still very young in goalkeeping terms. I think any club would be looking at him to take him on board."
