United to bid for Barca star

According to various papers today, Newcastle United are interested in bringing out-of-favour Barcelona midfielder Deco to St James' Park.

This follows the arrival of Kevin Keegan at the club and it is believed that Keegan has targeted Deco as a possible acquisition for the club.

Deco joined Barca back in 2004 after spending five years at Portuguese giants Porto. He has been linked with several moves away from the Camp Nou including several Premier League teams.

Deco is obviously a quality player and although he hasn't shown that over the 18 months or so I feel he would still be a terrific signing. Deco, 30, has won the Champions League twice with Barca and Porto respectively and I'm sure a lot of Magpies fans would be glad to see him come to St James'

    I lived in Barca for 3 years and Deco was fantastic to watch. His running off the ball was nothing short of amazing. As a geordie i would love to see him set the premiership alight. However, we will be linked to everyone and his dog over the coming weeks and months!
