Newcastle United are in dire need of a quality striker at the moment with £40 million summer arrival Joelinton struggling.
All the Magpies’ striking options have just a goal between them this term, and head coach Steve Bruce is expected to land a top finisher before the end of the January transfer window.
A former Newcastle striker is tearing it up in the League One, though, and Peterborough star Ivan Toney could have been the answer to the Magpies’ goalscoring woes.
The 23-year-old, who scored against Burnley in the FA Cup clash at the weekend, currently tops the league’s goal charts with 15 goals, and he has revealed that he wasn’t given enough chance to prove himself when he was with the Toons.
