Newcastle United is seeking to enhance its attacking options during the summer transfer window, as coach Eddie Howe aims to add depth to the team's offense by signing a versatile player.

According to 'Football Insider', Newcastle United has joined the race to sign Frenchman Christopher Nkunku, a Chelsea player who is preparing to leave Stamford Bridge this summer in search of a new challenge.

It is worth noting that Nkunku excels in several attacking positions, whether as a central striker, playmaker, or winger, making him a suitable option for Newcastle's ambitious project under Howe, especially with the team participating in European competitions next season.

Additionally, it is noteworthy that Newcastle has also been linked with Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin as part of its plans to strengthen the forward line.
