Newcastle United is reportedly monitoring the situation of Chelsea goalkeeper Mike Penders, who is currently on loan at Strasbourg. The player's future at his parent club is unclear, and it is said that Chelsea are uncertain if he is ready for a first-team role. Strasbourg hopes to keep Penders for another season, but Newcastle is watching him with consideration for next season. The Magpies might attempt to sign the goalkeeper, particularly as their own keepers Nick Pope, Aaron Ramsdale, and Mark Gillespie have contracts ending in the summer, and the potential departure of the first two could cause them to act.
