‘Electric’ striker who Newcastle are in talks to sign just scored a brilliant winner to beat Real Madrid
Ahead of travelling to Everton on the weekend, Eddie Howe is faced with the prospect of having neither of his first choice strikers available.
Newcastle ha🍒ve already been without Callum Wilson owing to injury and now Alexander Isak has also suffered a to✨e issue.
Isak won’t be involved for Sweden o💟ver the upcoming international break and will seemingly rest unt🦋il club football returns.
Howe has William Osula available, but it would seem that Anthony Gordon will be preferred💞 in a central rol꧅e against his old side at Goodison Park.
Newcastle see Osula as a ‘project player’ right now, not someone they🔜 are ready to turn to in big matches.
Jonathan Davis downs Real Madrid in Champions League after Newcastle talks
That being said, Newcastle we൩re recently in talks to sign Jonathan David, who i🧸s planning to leave Lille on a free transfer tꦚhis summer.
Given his stance, the French side are keen to cash-in on the Canadian in J💃anuary, but u🧸ntil then he’s continuing as the club’s go-to striker.

And after scori🎃ng 26 goals last season, the 24-year-old has already netted eight times thus.
David has five Ligue 1 goals in six 𝔍games and Wednesday evening’s winner against Real Madrid from the🅠 penalty spot was his first of the new-look group stage.
The ‘electric’ striker stepped up to take Lille’s pressure penalꦇty at the end of the first half and dispatched it into t♓he top right corner, a brilliant finish.
As mentioned, Newcastle could probably secure David for a relatively small fee 💜at the turn of year.
And considering that Premier League clubs are int🌳erested in Wilson, perhaps Paul Mitchell could mastermind David replacing the injury-prone 32-year-ಌold.
Jury still out on William Osula signing
Following his minutes against AFC Wimbledon in the EFL Cup this week, Newcastle insiders are opt🗹imistic about Osula’s future at the club and all he can go on to achieve.
But considering that Newcas🎶tle parted with a sizable fe🅰e to bring the Dane to Tyneside, it’s already fair to question the success of the deal.
Newcastle reportedly paid to buy 21-year-old Osula, a stiff fee for a player who essentially isn’t trusted to play Premie🐎r League games.
And were a player like David to arrive at St James’ Park mi꧟d-season, it’s ha🍒rd to imagine when and where Osula’s chances would ever come.
