Warnock Looking To Tyneside?

It seems the full-back has either not taken to new manager Paul Ince, or he seriously thinks St James' Park could be an exciting place to be this coming season.

Warnock signed a contract extension in May which ties him to Blackburn until 2012 but suddenly he seems set to follow David Bentley and Brad Friedel away from Ewood Park.

Everton are Newcastle's main rivals, and Rovers turned down a £2million bid from an unnamed club, although reports from Merseyside named the club as Everton.

The 26-year-old began his career at Liverpool, and the red and blue Stanley Park divide takes some crossing.
