It looks like Newcastle will not be signing Samuel Omorodion from Porto after all. The forward had been heavily linked throughout the window, but the deal is now dead in the water. Reasons for the collapse remain unclear, though it marks a blow to Newcastle's plans to bolster their squad. With negotiations ending unsuccessfully, Samuel Omorodion will not join Newcastle - but interest from Aston Villa could yet reignite. In season 25/26, Newcastle are only scoring 0.67 goals per game (4 in 6), below the Premier League average. Samuel Omorodion would be brought in to give them more bite in the final third. Newcastle have recently been linked with Aaron Ramsdale, Rasmus Winther Hojlund and Bilal El Khannouss while Porto have had no rumoured targets. Want to see how the story develops?
