Newcastle United are weighing up a move for Lyon striker Moussa Dembele. The 25-year-old had a spell on loan at Atletico Madrid last season after they agreed a £1.2million loan fee with option for a £30m transfer.
Atletico failed to take up their option though as Dembele’s season had been disrupted by Covid and injuries. The Spanish side instead tried to take Dembele on a second loan only for Lyon to block it.
He started the French season well with four goals in five games suffered a thigh injury then a fractured right fibula.
