Newcastle United are showing a keen interest in Real Madrid defender Christoph Metzelder. (Daily Star)The German international has only made 11 appearances so far for the La Liga giants since his move from Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund last summer.
The 27-year old spent over seven years in Dortmund before his move to Madrid, but it appears as though it hasn't worked out in the Spanish capital and now Kevin Keegan is looking to bring him to St James' Park.
It is thought Keegan will bid as much as £10 million for the 6 foot 4 inch defender. Metzelder is terrific in the air and in my view is just what Newcastle need, a quality centre-back.
