Bassong Seeking to Impress Keegan
Sébastien Bassong arrived on trial at Newcastle United and hopes to secure a permanent move
Sébastien Bassong, the Metz defender, has arrived at Newcastle United on trial and hopes to secure a permanent move to St James' Park.
"It's a good thing for me," said Bassong yesterday. " I will give everything and see how my situation is later."
Manager Kevin Keegan has a worryingly thin squad and fortifying his defence is arguably the priority.
The striker Mark Viduka could return from an achilles tendon injury in August, after it was feared he could be out until late September.
