IVAN AND COBBLERS REUNITED

-

IVAN TONEY has not said goodbye to Northampto­n just yet after his new club Newcastle United were drawn against the Cobblers in the Capital One Cup.

The 19-year-old barely missed a beat at Northampto­n last year, appearing 44 times and scoring ten goals – and Newcastle liked what they saw after signing the striker on a long-term deal.

Toney could now make his Newcastle debut against the Cobblers at St James’ Park.

“For some weird reason I just thought it might happen,” said Toney. “When we got pulled out, my phone just went crazy with messages and Twitter.

“It’s a great draw for me, against the club I started at.”
