One website suggests Newcastle should offer Damien Duff in part exchange, as the former Chelsea winger is said to be looking for a return to London.
A deal that could suit both parties, as Duff seems to be 'out of sorts' with Kevin Keegan and down the pecking order.
But this is no more than website speculation. KK has NOT offered Duff ... nor has he made any kind of offer ... yet.
Ferdinand is currently living on his brother's name and has yet to progress from "great prospect" to "Premiership quality" ... that quote comes from several West Ham fans who have emailed us this week.
