Ollie Watkins, currently with Aston Villa, is the latest name linked with a potential switch to Newcastle. The forward could become a key signing should the move materialise, as the club seeks to strengthen in a key area of the pitch. Newcastle are still pushing to finalise terms. However, Man Utd are still watching closely and may return with offers of their own. In season 25/26, Newcastle are only scoring 0.67 goals per game (4 in 6), below the Premier League average. Ollie Watkins would be brought in to give them more bite in the final third. Aston Villa have also been linked with Gabriel, Rodrigo Muniz Carvalho and Samuel Omorodion while Newcastle are reportedly monitoring Andriy Lunin, Gabriel Jesus and Mika Biereth.
