Newcastle United has intensified his pursuit of Brighton striker Joao Pedro, and it remains to be seen if they can conclude the agreement.
According to a GMS report, they could submit an official offer to sign the player. Influential Newcastle figures have already participated in discussions on a potential decision.
Newcastle needs a depth of attack
Newcastle wanted to sign Anthony Elaga from Nottingham Forest, and they made an offer for him. It seems that they are now looking at alternatives. The Brazilian has been identified as an alternative to Elaga. It will be interesting to see if Newcastle can get an agreement to sign the Brazilian. It would be assessed at around 60 million pounds sterling. The player scored 10 goals last season and collected seven assists.
Newcastle needs more quality and depth in the attack unit, and the South American should prove to be an excellent addition. In addition, he has already shown his capacities in the first flight. It could improve more with coaching and experience. He has all the attributes to become a high -level player. Even if Newcastle has to pay a bonus for him now, he could eventually justify long -term investment.
Joao Pedro is a man in demand
Pedro has also been linked to other English clubs. Liverpool has it on their radar. Premier League champions could use more depth in the attack unit. It remains to be seen if they decide to make an offer for the 23 -year -old. Whoever ends up registering it could have a future star on his hands.
Darwin Nunez failed to score goals regularly last season, and Liverpool must replace him. Brazilian could prove to be a useful alternative.
Newcastle depends too much on Alexander Isak for goals in the last third. He needs more support in the attack and signature of the Brazilian would be ideal.
