Newcastle United midfielder Joe Willock has been linked with a move away from the Tyneside club in recent weeks.
Premier League clubs are keen on signing Joe Willock in the January transfer window. Newcastle United are not keen on selling the 24-year-old midfielder this month according to a report from The Sun.
Joe Willock Needs to Resurrect His Career
Willock has struggled for regular game time this season, and he has not played for Newcastle United since the 11th of November. He has had his fair share of injury problems as well. The Englishman is highly rated at Newcastle, and he managed to establish himself as an important player for them since arriving from Arsenal in 2021.
Despite being linked with a move away from the club, Newcastle United are not keen on weakening their squad any further, and they do not want to sell the player this month. Players like Miguel Almiron and Callum Wilson are expected to leave before the window closes, and Newcastle will not sanction the departures of anymore first-team stars.
Willock is an important player for Newcastle United when he is fit and on form. Losing him would weaken the squid, and the Magpies cannot afford to do so if they want to finish the season strongly and secure European qualification.
Newcastle United have had a mediocre campaign so far, and they will be hoping to turn things around in the coming weeks. They will need to hold on to their key players to get back to their best in the coming weeks. Willock could still make an important contribution in the remaining months of the season, and Newcastle would do well to hold on to him.
Apart from the 24-year-old midfielder, Newcastle do not have a player who can score goals from the midfield on a consistent basis, and he adds a new dimension to their play. It is no surprise that the Premier League club are hoping to hold onto him for the long term, despite his struggles this season. It remains to be seen whether the former Arsenal midfielder can bounce back strongly and help Newcastle finish the season on a high.
