Alex Murphy ‘to join’ Kaiserslautern on 2. Bundesliga loan | OneFootball

Daily Mail reports that Newcastle United left-back Alex Murphy is undergoing a medical ahead of a loan move to Kaiserslautern until the end of the season.

The 22-year-old played seven Premier League minutes last season, and also featured in the Champions League win over Qarabag.

Kaiserslautern opened their 2. Bundesliga campaign with a goalless draw at overwhelming promotion candidates Wolfsburg on Saturday evening.

20-year-old Mike Haas started at left-back after Florian Kleinhansl left for Darmstadt this summer.

The traditional club are also closing in on signing Matej Maglica from Darmstadt. Like the Croat, Murphy could also operate at centre-back. The Galway native has represented the Republic of Ireland at every youth level.
