Newcastle United are reportedly interested in signing 29-year-old Atletico Madrid striker Alexander Sorloth in the summer transfer window.
Alexander Sorloth is in fine form this season, picking up 23 goal contributions in all competitions. The Norwegian international has established himself as one of the finest strikers in La Liga this season, and it is no surprise that Newcastle are keen on him, as per Fichajes.
It will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done. The 29-year-old has played in the Premier League before with Crystal Palace, and he should be able to settle quickly and make an instant impact in the Premier League. Newcastle need depth in the attacking unit, and Sorloth could support Alexander Isak in the attack.
Newcastle United need Sorloth
Newcastle United will need two quality strikers at their disposal if they want to fight for major trophies. They cannot afford to depend solely on the Swedish international. The Norwegian could share the goal-scoring burden with Isak next season. Sorloth is at the peak of his powers, and he will look to make his mark in the Premier League.
His time at Crystal Palace was underwhelming, and he will look to prove his quality in England this time. Newcastle certainly have the finances to get the deal across the line. They are one of the wealthiest clubs in the world. It will be interesting to see if they come forward with an official offer to sign the Atletico Madrid striker.
Newcastle are currently pushing for Champions League qualification, and they have an attractive project at their disposal. They have multiple quality players, and they have won a domestic trophy this season as well. They will be an attractive destination for players if they manage to secure Champions League qualification.
There is no reason why they cannot attract the 29-year-old Liga striker this summer. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. Newcastle United are clearly on the up, and they will look to improve further by bringing in quality signings.
