Lots of Newcastle United fans have flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts at the latest transfer news to emerge ahead of the January transfer window. 

According to RMC Sport, Newcastle have already begun talks with the camp of Leicester City defender Wesley Fofana about a potential switch to Tyneside.

The report also suggests Newcastle’s new owners have informed the Foxes they may receive a ‘concrete offer’ in the coming weeks for the 20-year-old defender.

Toon fans flocked to Twitter as they shared their delight at the claim from France to emerge linking them with the Leicester City man.

What did these Newcastle fans have to say?

“My dream Signing”

“That would be a ridiculous signing”
“Would Be an outstanding signing, one of the most underrated defenders in world football imo”
“Yes please”
“That’s massive”
“OMG, this would be an insane signing.”
“Hope this happens”
“Would be superb this given he is miles better than any of our current defenders and is about 30 years younger.”

Fofana has been out of action so far this season and is not expected to return until next year after fracturing his right fibula in a pre-season friendly game against Villarreal.

Although the Toon continue to see numerous players linked with their side, it seems these fans would love to see the young Frenchman be one of the players the club target in January.
