Newcastle eye Braga keeper Hornicek

Newcastle United have set their sights on Braga goalkeeper Lukas Hornicek as they look to strengthen between the posts. The 24-year-old earned his first senior cap for the Czech Republic in May and was included in the national team's World Cup squad. Hornicek's current deal in Portugal includes a €30 million release clause, and Braga have made it clear they will not entertain any offer below that figure. For now, the interest remains exploratory, with no formal bid lodged.
