Agent left deflated as free agent rejects Newcastle move

Ben Foster’s agent was left deflated after nearly agreeing on a move to bring the former Watford goalkeeper to Newcastle.

Foster was a free agent following the expiration of his contract at Watford.

The former England international has now announced his retirement from football but came very close to signing for Newcastle, according to his agent.

“We had a few more calls and shared a few messages where it seemed like it was getting closer. But then I got the final call and I knew right then it was a no,” his agent Richard Lee said, speaking to The Athletic.
