Former Rangers defender Craig Moore comments, following reports linking him with a move to Newcastle United. Speaking to Sky Sports, Morre said: "I've not heard anything directly from Newcastle at the moment.

"I'm a free agent, so there's going to be interest, but I've not agreed anything with any clubs.

"As you can imagine with free agents, there's a lot of speculation, but at the moment we're working to try and get something and England is the place I'd like to play next season."

Souness told the Magpies' official website: "We’ve had a conversation with Craig Moore’s people. Craig is without a club at this time.

"The chairman is dealing with it, but I’m not sure exactly how far down the road we are with it at this minute.

"I was in Scotland last week at the wedding of one of the sons of Rangers chairman David Murray.

"Dick Advocaat and Walter Smith, who both had Craig Moore in their teams at Ibrox, were there and when I asked them about him they said the same thing - sign him."
