It is claimed that Freedman is keen to take the job at St James’ Park and push Newcastle’s recruitment forward.

Losing Freedman would be a big blow to Crystal Palace, just months into the reign of new boss Oliver Glasner.

Freedman has also been linked with a role at Manchester United, but Newcastle appear his most likely exit route this summer.
