According to Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport, Atletico Madrid striker Nikola Kalinic, currently on loan at AS Roma, has been offered to Newcastle United as the Serie A side looks to cut ties with him this month.
It remains to be seen if the Croatia international is interested in moving to Tyneside, but he is very likely to change clubs in the coming days after starting just one league game and coming off the bench thrice.
Newcastle are in dire need of quality striking options given Joelinton’s struggles, but it isn’t clear if head coach Steve Bruce sees Kalinic as the solution to his side’s goalscoring woes.
