Newcastle are considering a possible transfer option for inexperienced David de Gea as they await the results of a scan on Nick Pope's shoulder injury.
Pope is facing a lengthy suspension, likely to be expected about four months after he was forced to leave in Newcastle's 1-0 win over Manchester United with a shoulder problem left behind. Burnley.
De Gea is a potential option that Newcastle are looking for. He left Manchester United in the summer after 12 years at Old Trafford but has yet to join a new club.
