Newcastle's Striker Dilemma Solved?
Newcastle United have scouted Igor Thiago as a potential striker option to rival new signing Nick Woltemade.
After selling Alexander Isak to Liverpool, concerns arose about Newcastle's firepower. However, Nick Woltemade has quickly addressed this issue. Signed for around £69million from Stuttgart, the 23-year-old has made a strong start in the Premier League.
Woltemade matched Alan Shearer's record by scoring in Newcastle's 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest, his third goal in four top-flight matches. As a result, supporters are growing to admire the striker and are confident he can lead them to success.
Despite Woltemade's impressive start, Newcastle may still add another striker to the mix, with Igor Thiago being considered as a possible option.
