Newcastle United could be set to allow Chris Wood to leave after a slow start since his transfer to St James’ Park.
Things just haven’t quite clicked for Wood in Eddie Howe’s side, and journalist Dean Jones is now tipping him to be allowed to move on in the near future.
“It’s always been hard for Chris Wood to fit in at Newcastle. The transfer seemed strange from the start,” Jones told Give Me Sport.
“I think part of it was the fact that they were looking at set pieces and him getting on the end of crosses.
“But, with the way that Newcastle are now improving and moving on to another level, part of me does expect for him to be made available in January if he wants to move on.”
Newcastle could probably now aim a little higher than Wood, so it will be interesting to see if they decide to let him go and sign a replacement in January.
We should move for danish sensation Gustav Isaksen from FC MidtJylland. I believe he will be the next Big thing from Denmark. Very creative, plenty of pace ned experience from european football. I know its not a striker solution but I think very fondly of him.
To upgrade Wood we just need someone with 10 goals a season…would be great with a strong header…
No thanks – falls over and is a little crybaby
No disrespect to Chris wood but imo i don’t think he has fitted in from the start, if we decide to part with him in January i wish him all the best for his future.
Really improve keeper defo need big name striker possibly Messi 🤣
He isn’t going anywhere, he’s on 100k a week, why would he take a huge paycut to leave
