Newcastle United ‘definitely want’ to strengthen their attacking options when the January transfer window opens and are ready to seek out more ‘creative solutions’, according to journalist Dean Jones. Eddie Howe bolstered his squad over the summer, splashing over £120 million on new signings, but will soon have the chance to add to his squad again in the winter.
The Magpies are understood to be considering a £50 million bid for Shakhtar Donetsk winger Myhaylo Mudryk once the winter window opens.
Mudryk has made a fast start to the season, scoring two goals and providing three assists in five matches, but could soon be on the move.
According to Football Insider, Newcastle are also set to revisit a deal for Leicester City attacking midfielder James Maddison in January, with the club believing his value could have dropped.
