The Sun says Newcastle boss Rafa Benitez wants more experience at the back and will try to talk centre-half Morgan into joining the Toon.

It will be Wor Wes if Benitez can come up with the right offer for both the Foxes and their powerful defender, who signed a three-year deal last July.

Newcastle often struggled at the back in their run to the Championship title and Benitez also likes Hull's Harry Maguire.
