Newcastle weigh up bids for United, Chelsea and West Ham stars
According to reports in today's Sun, Newcastle manager Kevin Keegan is preparing bids for Man United defender Wes Brown, Chelsea left-back Wayne Bridge and West Ham striker Dean Ashton.
The Magpies boss has been told he does have money to spend in the summer after taking the Newcastle hot seat last month. Keegan has been linked with several players since his arrival last month but it is now believed he has set his sights on the trio of Borwn, Bridge and Ashton.
Ashton, 24, Brown, 28 and Bridge, 27, have all been linked with moves away from their respective clubs in recent months and it is thought that all are interested in moves in the summer. It is likely that the Magpies will have to splash out as much as £20 million for the trio.
All three in my view would be good additions to the Newcastle squad but I feel Keegan should be concentrating on keeping the Magpies in the Premier League at the moment rather than looking for new signings. He has only managed to pick up two points since returning to the club and that is clearly relegation type form.

Hi As a Hammers fan I think we would all be grateful for the toon to take carthorse Deano !! A lazy ball watcher who would be better pulling a cartload of Turnips at a county show !! Perhaps Mr K will have decided that he has taken Newcastle as far as he can prior to parting with his money.
