Newcastle suffered their 11th loss of the Premier League campaign over the weekend, and the 1-nil loss to Arsenal saw them slip down to 18th on the log.
Manager Rafa Benitez can’t wait for January to come with his squad in dire need of additions all around the pitch.
A goalscorer remains top agenda on the Toons’ transfer plans for the window transfer window, and Besiktas striker Cenk Tosun is equally the top target.
Reports claim Newcastle are readying a £10million bid for the 26-year-old hitman having been convinced by his qualities.
However, the Turkish giants won’t let Tosun go for any price below £17million, and failure to meet the asking price could see Newcastle relegate.
Landing the Turkey international can guarantee the Toons safety, with the 12 goals and 3 assists he has bagged this term testament to his qualities.
Should Mike Ashley continue being owner beyond January, enough funds might not be provided for recruitment, and it doesn’t appear there is a cheap and quality finisher out there for the club.
Could £7million really hinder Newcastle from landing Tosun?
