All signs point towards Kelly signing for the Magpies. Unlike their protracted attempts to sign Tosin Adarabioyo, the competition for Kelly’s signature doesn’t seem as intense and Newcastle are viewed as the leading candidate to sign the Bournemouth defender.
Eddie Howe has previously worked with Kelly with both player and manager already knowing what they can expect from each other. Kelly has been tracked by the Magpies for a while now and with confirmation that he will leave the Vitality Stadium at the end of his contract, Kelly’s future will be resolved in the near future.
