Manchester United are reportedly casting their eye over Newcastle's Lewis Hall and Tino Livramento's Nottingham Forest teammate... actually, according to Sky Sports' newspaper round-up, it's Hall alongside Antony Robinson who have emerged as targets as United look to bolster their left-back options.
The report, part of Tuesday's transfer paper talk column, suggests the Old Trafford hierarchy see the position as one requiring reinforcement, with both players understood to be under consideration.
Elsewhere in the same round-up, Arsenal are said to be exploring a short-term swoop for free agent John Stones following William Saliba's World Cup injury setback, highlighting the Gunners' need for defensive cover at the back.
As ever with newspaper talk columns, these are stories to file under speculation rather than confirmed business - no fees, contract lengths or formal interest have been outlined by United or Newcastle. GoalPoles will provide updates should either move gather concrete momentum in the coming days.
