Carr due to arrive
Newcastle have agreed terms with Tottenham over the transfer of Republic of Ireland defender Stephen Carr.
Carr is due to arrive at St James' Park in the next 48 hours to complete a medical and finalise personal terms.
The long-serving White Hart Lane full-back joined the club as a trainee in September 1993 and has since gone on to make just short of 230 Premiership appearances for the north London club, scoring eight goals in all competitions.
Newcastle manager Sir Bobby Robson had hoped to bring in Portugal defender Miguel from Benfica but he is a long-time admirer of Dublin-born Carr.
