Newcastle Confident Of Signing Diego Carlos

 The Telegraph says there is progress being made over a deal for Carlos. It is hoped that the pursuit could be concluded this week. 

 “We are working really hard on two deals at the moment and we are getting closer," a senior source said.

 “But our league position is making things harder to persuade players to come, it makes a tough window even trickier to do business in."

 Seville and Newcastle are still negotiating a fee for Carlos but the 28-year-old Brazilian wants to make the move and that is helping Newcastle push for a breakthrough. 

 Those talks are ongoing and there is cautious optimism that he will be a Newcastle player by the time they take on Leeds United next weekend.
