.... American star Oguchi Onyewu.
Glenn Roeder is trying to lose the media on this story, and has already played down speculation linking him with a move for the Standard Liege central defender. But the Belgian club have confirmed that there is a Premiership club interested in their star defender, and a loan deal could be possible.
At the moment that club seems to be Newcastle - BUT Middlesbrough, Fulham and Chelsea have all been linked with the American in recent months.
French club Marseille have been on the case, too, but Sky Sports understand that Onyewu would "prefer St James' Park to the Stade Velodrome".
