<\/p>\n

Newcastle United are looking at Spain international Samu Aghehowa as a potential transfer option to replace Alexander Isak this summer.<\/p>\n

The Magpies are braced for a flood of offers for their Swedish superstar in the coming months with the club aware of major interest in him.<\/p>\n

Isak\u2019s eye-catching goal record on Tyneside has caught the attention of other Premier League sides and Barcelona.<\/a><\/p>\n

However, with Newcastle under no significant pressure to sell the former Real Sociedad striker, they could demand a Premier League record \u00a3150m fee.<\/a><\/p>\n

If Isak does leave St. James\u2019 Park, Eddie Howe will be on the hunt for a new attacker, potentially with the offer of playing UEFA Champions League football next season.<\/p>\n

As per reports from Football Insider<\/a>, Newcastle have been scouting Aghehowa since the start of 2025, following an impressive first season at Porto.<\/p>\n

\"Samu<\/p>\n

Aghehowa made the decision to leave Atletico Madrid last summer, after being unconvinced over his first team role\u00a0 under Diego Simeone, but Los Rojiblancos are rumoured to still hold a 50% sell-on fee over his \u00a382.5m release clause in Portugal.<\/p>\n

20 goals in 32 games in all competitions is a strong return for the 20-year-old but any move from Newcastle will not be straightforward.<\/p>\n

Howe will continue to prioritise keeping Isak as his Plan A with the report adding Newcastle will not pay Aghehowa\u2019s full release clause at this stage.<\/p>\n

Porto are still looking to secure a huge fee for their star striker, but the club could also exercise their right to buy 30% more of his rights from Atletico Madrid before entering into sale talks, to ensure they receive more from a potential transfer exit.<\/p>\n

Porto are currently third in the Portuguese top-flight, with only the champions qualifying directly for the Champions League next season, and second spot heading into the tournament qualifiers in August.<\/p>\n
