Newcastle goalkeeper Tim Krul has made a loan move to Brighton just weeks into the season.

The lethal goalkeeper will bring an end to his 12-year stint at New Castle to head to the south coast after struggling to break into Rafa Benitez‘s plans.

The 29 year old Dutch goalkeeper has already turned out once for the Seagulls this season – in the 1-0 Carabao Cup defeat at the hands of Bournemouth.

A statement BY Newcastle said: “Everyone at Newcastle United would like to thank Tim for his long service to the club, and wish him and his family well for the future.”

Krul had joined the club from Dutch side ADO Den Haag in 2005, before making his debut in the Uefa Cup clash with Palermo a year later.
