Former Newcastle United goalkeeper Shay Given has made it clear that he feels Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher would be a good signing for his former club.

The England international hasn’t been at his best for Chelsea in recent times, but it’s clear he could do a job for most other Premier League clubs after a hugely impressive loan at Crystal Palace last season.

Given rates Gallagher highly and believes he could be an ideal signing for Newcastle.

“I like Conor Gallagher a lot,” said Given. “Chelsea are a team that’s struggling, but I like him as a player. He has actually been linked to Newcastle.

“But it’s a midfielder arriving into the box and it’s a brilliant header from Gallagher.”

Gallagher has also been linked with the likes of Liverpool, Everton and West Ham in recent times.
