Newcastle United are exploring options to bring in another striker this summer with Eddie Howe keen to boost his forward line.
The Magpies did not replace New Zealand forward Chris Wood when he left to join Nottingham Forest in January. And with that deal now pushed through Newcastle are considering who will provide cover for the likes of Callum Wilson and Alexander Isak.
Newcastle, of course, can use Joelinton in a striker role if need be and Allan Saint-Maximin, Miguel Almiron, Anthony Gordon and Elliot Anderson can also fit into a front three in various positions. But in terms of an out-and-out forward, Newcastle could be in trouble if number 9 Wilson or Sweden star Isak get hurt in what will be a demanding campaign.
