Newcastle manager Sam Allardyce wants Jussi Jaaskelainen to replace
Shay Given if he leave St James' Park.
The Magpies boss feats his Republic of Ireland goalkeeper is on his
way because he is sticking with inform Steve Harper between the
posts.
Jaaskelainen has been with Bolton for a decade but is stalling on a
new contract and would be tempted by the chance to be reunited with
former Reebok Stadium boss Allardyce.
Given's future with the Toon Army could change if he regains the
No.1 jersey and he may decide to stay on Tyneside.
But Allardyce knows Jaaskelainen is a more than adequate
replacement if the Irishman ups sticks.
