Newcastle United defender David Rozehnal has this evening joined Serie A giants Lazio on a six month loan deal.Rozehnal has failed to make a real impression at the Premier League side and Magpies boss Kevin Keegan is keen to bring in a replacement before midnight tonight.
Rozehnal made over 20 appearances for Newcastle since joining in the summer for £2.9 million. "David Rozehnal joined Newcastle only last summer, but has not been playing in his position in defence," Zika told Pravo. "The Lazio offer came shortly before the transfer deadline, but we managed to finish the deal."
This comes as no surprise to me. Rozehnal has been largely dissapointing and I am sure Keegan will be looking to make the deal permanent in the summer. The 27-year old has 40 caps for his country Czech Republic.
