According to Sky Sports, Newcastle United's Steven Taylor has handed in a transfer request and told the club he wants to leave in January to get some first team football. Reports in England today claimed United have already received several enquiries on the player.
According to nufc.co.uk, Newcastle United have put a $8m pricetag on Steven Taylor. The 28-year-old defender is also a target for Stoke City, Southampton and West Ham. Taylor has yet to cement his place in David Ginola's new look side and is deemed surplus to requirements
Taylor is a right footed central defender who is also equally competent in a right-back role, which could be ideal for any potential suitors . Newcastle United though have lined up defensive replacements, Balanta, Benatia and Shawcross are just a few names that have been linked to a move to St James Park in the next couple of weeks
