Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa transfer wish gives Newcastle potential signing headache

Newcastle United are facing a potential signing headache as they chase down further attacking options heading into the 22/23 campaign. With Hugo Ekitike touted as one possible addition, Chelsea youngster Armando Broja is another who is seemingly catching the eye.

West Ham have also enquired regarding the Albanian forward, with Michail Antonio's goals drying up towards the end of last season. Steven Gerrard has however added further fuel to the potential fire claiming another Hammers target Ollie Watkins is going nowhere this summer.

The England international was also said to have been of interest for David Moyes' side leaving the Magpies as frontrunners to try and secure a deal for Broja later this year. But with Gerrard's recent comments ringing true, it seems the race is back on regarding the Blues forward.
