"If you were to take that relentless running of Erling Haaland, the body and the hold-up play of Romelu Lukaku, and the skills of Leon Bailey, then you have a Whisper."
As recommendations go, it surely does not get much better than that for Dujuan 'Whisper' Richards. The Jamaican prospect is approaching the end of a two-week trial with Newcastle United, and the promising striker had a watching brief at Whitley Park on Monday night as the Magpies under-21s fought back twice to draw with Leeds United.
News of Richards' arrival on Tyneside emerged in the Jamaica Observer last month, with the 17-year-old then pictured at St James' Park as Eddie Howe's side were held by West Ham. The forward has since shared pictures and videos on social media of his time at the club's Benton training base, as he bids to impress academy staff and earn a permanent move.
