Habib Diallo is the latest name to emerge as a potential transfer target on Newcastle United's radar this window. The Strasbourg forward who netted 21 times last season is a name which has been put to Eddie Howe as the Magpies mull over another attacking recruit.
Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson spent the closing weeks of last term battling for the central striking role, with the record signing ultimately shifting to the left flank. However, Newcastle are understood to be weighing up the potential addition of another striker with Champions League football adding to the club's schedule.
Joelinton is capable of filling in up front, as are January recruit Anthony Gordon and Allan Saint-Maximin. But that has not stopped Howe from considering whether or not to move for another specialist striker, with Diallo a potential contender for the role.
