Frenchman seeking new club

Skysports.com understands former Newcastle attacker Fabrice Pancrate is hoping to secure a move back to England. Pancrate is available on a free transfer after leaving Newcastle at the end of last season and he is desperate to win a move to an English club. The former Paris St Germain ace made 16 appearances for Newcastle last season, helping them win promotion back to the Premier League. The 30-year-old has a wealth of experience having played in France, Spain and England, and is ready to prove his worth by going on trial at any interested club. Agent Gino Culbertson, who is working on behalf of the player's representative in the UK, admits Pancrate is holding out for a move to England and that he will snub interest from elsewhere to play again in the UK. "I have been asked by a contact to circulate the name of Fabrice to clubs in England as he would like to return to play in England," Culbertson told skysports.com. "Fabrice really enjoyed his time at Newcastle and he would like to try again at another club in England. "He is willing to come over and train with a club so that he can show that he still has a lot to offer."
