The Magpies are focusing on bringing the best young talent in the country to St James’ Park.

They are on course to complete the signing of Rory Finneran, who is joining the Premier League club from Blackburn Rovers.

Obi-Martin is a prolific goal scorer at youth level and his performances attracted the attention of clubs in England and in Germany.
