Newcastle United remain on the hunt for a new striker this summer after failing in their attempts to sign long-term target Hugo Ekitike from Reims earlier this month, although they have now suffered further setbacks elsewhere.
The Daily Mail had recently reported that the Magpies are admirers of Red Bull Salzburg’s Benjamin Sesko and had added him to their list of potential targets this summer, before eagle-eyed fans added to the speculation of a potential move soon after.
It was spotted that the player’s agent, Elvis Basanovic, had uploaded pictures of Newcastle ’s airport and Quayside to his Instagram story on Tuesday evening, although the Austrian outfit have now insisted that Sesko’s transfer situation is ‘very clear’.
