Newcastle United are now targeting a move for a Championship defender who is a big supporter of the Magpies.
Newcastle’s summer preparations are already well underway and one area that manager Eddie Howe is keen to improve on is at left-back where Dan Burn is currently occupying.
Davis had a season ticket at Newcastle for years
As a boy, Davis’ football journey began at Wallsend Boys Club, the very same club that produced the likes of Alan Shearer, Steve Bruce, Michael Carrick and Peter Beardsley.
The 24-year-old defender was a huge Newcastle fan and had a season ticket at St James’ Park for years, though he never actually got to play for his boyhood club as he joined Morecambe’s academy in 2016.
From there he would go on to join Leeds, making 14 appearances for them in four years before finally settling in Ipswich where he helped them gain promotion from League One and is currently flying in the Championship.
Davis’ strengths lie mostly in his attacking ability and it may be a solid option for Newcastle to have if they are looking to move Burn back to a more central position for greater depth at the back.
