SAM Allardyce is hoping that the deal to bring Swindon Town starlet Ben Tozer to Tyneside will be finalised over the weekend. The 17-year-old was at St.James' Park earlier this week and completion of his medical is expected in the next couple of days. And Big Sam told Newcastle World TV that Tozer is one of a number of "development" players he is looking to bring to Tyneside in the coming months. "We're waiting for the completion of Ben's medical before the deal is done and hopefully that will be sometime over the weekend," said Allardyce. "We want to build the younger end of our squad and to get a few more development players. "Ben is an excellent prospect and hopefully he'll be the first of a number of young players we bring in." The 6ft 3ins youngster operates at left back and in central defence and began his career with Plymouth Argyle. He made his senior debut for Swindon at the start of this campaign in a League Cup tie against Charlton having also represented English Schools FA U18s last season.

Olympiacos Vs Chelsea Arsenal vs AC

Dippers vs Inter

Just looked it up, I stand corrected. As he played competative football for the U21's, he can no longer play for Nigeria. TBH, who cares?

Aye he can play for Nigeria.

Brilliant news

So Shola is going to the ACN? I can't answer your question with 100% accuracy.

I can't believe you went to the trouble of taking a photo of your paper and uploading it, just to show us a typo

Thank God he wont be playing in the ANC.

Cacapa.

Chelsea Vs Arsenal it is then.

Can't we do both? (ie Tozer) As far as I see it, he would SIGNIFICANTLY improve the starting XI.

"Downward sprial"? He's 29 ffs, not 35. His game is based on skill, not pace. There is a reason why he plays for a top European side.

Swindon Town caretaker manager David Byrne expects Ben Tozer to be a Premier League star at Newcastle United. The 17-year-old defender was due to hold talks and have a medical with the Magpies on Tuesday after the clubs agreed a fee. "Ben is a laid back character and sometimes that doesn't help him when he plays, but I knew I had a gem all along," Byrne told the club website. "There is no doubt in my mind that Tozer will make it in the Premiership." Byrne added: "He is one of the best youngsters I have ever worked with because he listens and does exactly what you want him to do on the pitch."

Gudjohnsen is the type of creative player we miss. If we're going to play 451/433 then IMO he's perfect for an advanced role in the central three. Creativity in the middle and pace out wide = success

I hope he doesn't
