If there has been one important collection meal from the opening of two games of the Premier League season of Newcastle United, it is that we look after a draw and a defeat in our first few games.
Yes, Alexander Isak could stay, and Will Osula found the back of the net against Liverpool shortly after he started, but every match could have been brought to bed if Eddie Howe had a clinical no. 9 at his disposal in the first half of both the Aston Villa and Liverpool games.
Newcastle is clearly fond of Jorgen Strand Larsen from Wolves, with a bid of £ 50 million rejected for the Norwegian on Monday.
But it seems that the club returned on Tuesday evening with offer number two for the 6ft 4 ″ forward, while a deal for Yoane Wissa is far from dead based on reports that pop up last night.
According to reports, Newcastle United had a £ 55 million offered last night by Wolves for Jorgen Strand Larsen.
This is confirmed by Sky Sports Keith DownieCraig Hope and Fabrizio Romano of the mail, and it has been suggested that a third bid is now available, now the player is happy to be a member of Eddie How’s Mags.
On Tuesday evening, Strand Larsen came up and scored twice in a Carabao Cup victory in West Ham, although his heroic deeds were quickly followed by a meaningful message from Vitor Perieira, who did little to exclude a potential late sale:
“So far, Jorgen is our player and we will see what happens. Football is football – every player has a prize, I believe. Even Messi or Cristiano. But he is very, very important to us. We will see what is happening.
“I know him very well. He will never, never force a movement). There are players that I have known in this situation, and they just don’t ask me to play. But Larsen wants to play every time.
“(Tonight) In the end he goes in the middle of the back and defends. It means he has the character. But of course we know that football is football. We have to be ready for everything.”
If we want to sign Larsen Stranden and let him play eligible on time to play on Elland Road against Leeds on Saturday, then we have to confirm the deal and the player who is registered on Friday by afternoon, which gives us a little more than 48 hours to complete a kind of deal.
In order to consider every sale of Alexander Isak remotely this summer, the owners have made it clear that we first need at least two new strikers through the door.
Should Strand Larsen be the first to have the best chance of being our second?
Yoane Wissa can still be that option, with Post Craig Hope reveals that a deal will remain ‘alive’ after conversations took place between Newcastle and Brentford on Tuesday.
The sources of Hope suggest that a deal could still continue, with Newcastle hoping for the coming days in the Max Bees of the Bees Eye Borussia Dortmund as a potential replacement.
Whatever happens, we don’t have it long now to sort it, with the window that closed next Monday after a tiring three months on Tyneside.
