Everton warned off striker move
NEWCASTLE United boss Kevin Keegan today signalled his intention to fend off interest in striker Alan Smith from Everton.
Goodison Park boss David Moyes is understood to be weighing up a bid for Smith, who has not found the net in 37 competitive appearances for United.
But Keegan says Smith brings a lot to the club on and off the pitch, and believes the former Leeds and Manchester United player can turn round his St James's Park career.
"I don't want to lose Alan Smith," said Keegan.
"He is great around the place.
"Everyone's got different opinions, and Alan Smith needs a goal at Newcastle United.
"And you've got to ask how many times he has played as an out-and-out striker.
"He's played a lot of his games for this club in midfield.
"He's a fantastic member of our squad, and I don't want to lose any member of this squad now."
