Newcastle closing in on deal to sign Joelinton from Hoffenheim

Newcastle United are set to sign the Brazilian striker Joelinton in the summer.

According to German publication Sport1, the Magpies have been negotiating the transfer for weeks and they are set to smash the club transfer record for the Bundesliga player.

Newcastle broke their transfer record for Miguel Almiron earlier this year and it seems that they are planning to splash out on more attacking talent.

Joelinton has been very impressive for Hoffenheim and he is tipped to have a big future in the game.

Rafa Benitez definitely needs another striker and the Brazilian could prove to be a superb signing.
