DO: Newcastle is interested in Porto forward Omorodion, tops the signing list

Hupu August 8th According to TheAthletic ace reporter David Ornstein, Newcastle is paying attention to the situation of Porto striker Omorodion and considering signing the Spanish striker.

It is reported that Newcastle United is considering signing Omorodion. The 21-year-old is currently at the top of the club's forward signing list after Newcastle missed several signing targets this summer. Official contacts between the

clubs have not yet taken place, nor can they guarantee that the transfer will be successful, but Omorodion is Newcastle's favorite player. Brentford's Visa and Wolves' Larson are also considered Newcastle's choices in the forward position. However, the Wolves think Larson is not a seller.

After joining Porto in the summer window last year, Omorodion made 45 appearances in his first season for the club and scored 27 goals. In the Europa League group stage against Manchester United last season, he scored twice, helping Porto reverse the draw with the Red Devils 3-3.

Newcastle had hoped to sign Leipzig striker Sheshko, however, the Slovenian international is inclined to transfer to Manchester, who has agreed to pay a total of 85 million euros transfer fee and has flew to Manchester for a medical examination.

Newcastle's goal to find a striker is under uncertainty in the future of Isaac, which rejected Liverpool's previous official offer for the Swedish striker's £110 million.

It is worth mentioning that Omorodion showed outstanding strength in the Portuguese League last season, making him the target of many teams chasing. Therefore, Porto's attitude is very clear, and they do not intend to hand over this potential striker at a low price.
