After missing Joao Pedro in Chelsea, Newcastle United would have turned their attention to an instant alternative that scored 27 goals last season.
To say that it was a disappointing summer for Newcastle so far would be a major and euphemism. The Magpies first missed Dean Huijsen, then saw their offer rejected for Anthony Elaga and have since watched Pedro chose Chelsea Instead of a move to St James’ Park. Going three for three for transfer failures, the Magpies will be desperate to obtain at least one higher target in the coming months.
To this end, there will be a certain relief around Tyneside that James Trafford is still on the way. Burnley’s shot, like Elaga and others, has been a higher target for some time. On this occasion, however, the Magpies are ready to obtain their man.
While Trafford will offer Eddie Howe An instant upgrade on Nick Pope, what he will not finish is the search for Newcastle to attack the reinforcements.
Again, they simply have to go back in search of new options. The money is there for Pif to spend this time after the difficulties of the PSR forced Newcastle to take a step back in the past and now they must support Howe with alternative targets.

People around St James’ Park will be frustrated by the way this summer has been going on so far, but it is far from over. I miss Pedro would even be a disguised blessing if Newcastle would now sign a particular lead as an excellent alternative.
Newcastle fights to sign Samu Aghehowa
According to O Jogo, as relayed by the offside, the offside, Newcastle is now fighting to sign Samu Aghehowa FC Porto this summer. The former Atletico Madrid striker had a first clinical season in Portugal and aroused great interest from the Premier League. As was the case with the attackers in shape all summer, however, it will cost a high price.
Porto is not in a mood to lose your star at a reduced price and require that his release clause of 100 million euros (85 million pounds sterling) be triggered if they want to say goodbye this summer. Having offers around the brand of 50 to 60 million pounds sterling rejected for other objectives already, these costs may not be a problem for Newcastle which will become more and more desperate to win key reinforcements.

Nicknamed a player with “elite potential” by the analyst Ben MattinsonAghehowa would transform any failure of Pedro into a reflection after the fact in Newcastle if he arrived this summer. With 19 league goals and 27 goals all competitions last season, the Spanish international was worth every penny of his release clause of 85 million pounds sterling.
