A Northeast return could be on for Manchester City winger Adam Johnson.

Johnson has struggled to match expectations at City since his arrival last season from Middlesbrough.

The Sunday Express says Newcastle United and Sunderland have been alerted that Manchester City may sell Johnson in the summer.



we are linked again today, boy i hope this comes off

 

He'd be a good asset but isn't he a Mag?

 

Ashley young = Watford in the PL when he went

Downing = Boro had just been relegated when he went.

Delph = leeds in league 1 so will sort of give you that one.

 

It's been documented a few times that he's a Mag.

 

does it make a difference if he is a mag??

 

Totally agree, he looked class in the games he played in for Blackpool in the prem

 

The only place it's been 'documented' is in the deluded world of supporters of the mags. Johnson was born in Sunderland and after scoring his first goal for Manchester City was himself quoted to have preferred to have scored against anybody but Sunderland.

Here is Manchester City's official website and here is the official review of Johnson's debut performance and goal against Sunderland.

"Adam Johnson came off the bench against the club he supported as a boy to score a magnificent goal in the 91st minute, but until then it looked to all intents and purposes that a string of fine saves from Sunderland’s Craig Gordon were going to help Sunderland to all three points."
