Newcastle Could Be Priced Out of Deal for Club Brugge Striker Wesley Moraes

Newcastle United are reportedly keen on bringing Club Brugge striker Wesley Moraes to St James' Park during this window, but the Belgian club's asking price could prove a stumbling block in the deal.

The striker, who is more commonly referred to as Wesley, has scored seven goals in the Jupiler Pro League this term, taking his tally at the club to 31 in 109 appearances.

As reported by Dutch news outlet HLN, Newcastle are one of four clubs interested in the Brazilian, yet with their well-documented lack of transfer funding, it is likely they will be priced out of a move for the 22-year-old.
