Newcastle have reached an agreement to sign Bournemouth defender Lloyd Kelly on a free transfer.
Kelly has spent the last five years at the Cherries after joining from Bristol City, but his contract is set to expire at the end of next month.
The Magpies have moved quickly to secure his signature, and Mail Sport understands a deal is now in place for the 25-year-old to move to St James' Park this summer.
Newcastle boss Eddie Howe - who managed Bournemouth across two separate spells between 2008 and 2020 - is a long-term admirer of Kelly, and is finally set to land his man.
