The £16.5million man who hasn't had 'fair chance' at new look Newcastle United

Dwight Gayle will not believe he has a "fair chance" to play his part in Eddie Howe's Newcastle United revolution - according to the football manager who once tried to sign him.

That is the opinion of former Newcastle and Fulham star Lee Clark who feels that Gayle must use suggestions that he is better suited to the Championship to prove people wrong the moment he gets an opportunity again in a black and white shirt. Gayle has been afforded just a single minute of action in the Premier League in 2022 under Howe.

And his future looks far from certain ahead of a big summer shake-up on Tyneside. That said, Gayle also has two years left of his current deal at the club and is settled at St James' Park.
