@MattHughesTimes: Patrick Bamford turns down Steve McClaren reunion at Newcastle | The Times http://t.co/cIdRJa4ca7
Haven't got access to Times but think it was a permanent rather than a loan. Wonder if we'll try for a loan towards the end of the window.
It says Bamford wants to be 3rd choice striker at Chelsea next season, and has been offered a new 5 year deal at Chelsea but won't sign it until he knows his role at the club. Without signing it he has 1 year left on his deal. Chelsea value him at £10m and us, West Brom, Newcastle and Sunderland are interested in him but no one has made an official offer yet.
