Keegan targets £4 million Chelsea defender

According to today's Daily Express, Newcastle boss Kevin Keegan is interested in bringing Chelsea defender Wayne Bridge to St James' Park.

Bridge has been linked with several moves away from Stamford Bridge in recent years after the club signed Ashley Cole last year.

Bridge has made over 75 appearances for the Blues scoring once in the process. Bridge joined Chelsea back in 2003 after leaving Southampton.

I feel Bridge would be a decent addition to the Newcastle side who really do need reinforcements in the defence. Bridge is a good left-back that will get forward at every opportunity and he isn't afraid to make a tackle.
