Alan Shearer has recommended that Newcastle United should consider Viktor Gyokeres as a top priority for their team. Gyokeres is currently showcasing impressive performance at Sporting Lisbon, having scored 66 goals in 67 games. Despite Ruben Amorim, the newly appointed manager of Manchester United, indicating his decision not to pursue players from Sporting Lisbon in January, Newcastle might see an opportunity to try and acquire Gyokeres during the winter transfer window. Nevertheless, they could face competition from other clubs such as Arsenal and Barcelona. The expectation is that Gyokeres' price tag will reduce to £63 million next summer, which might escalate the competition for securing his signature.

Newcastle legend Alan Shearer has called on the club to pursue a signing in the forthcoming January transfer window, with a particular focus on Viktor Gyokeres, who is also being eyed by Manchester United. Gyokeres has demonstrated exceptional goalscoring ability, netting 23 goals and providing 4 assists in 17 matches this season. He is seen as a perfect substitute for Alexander Isak, in the event of Isak's departure from the club. The anticipated transfer fee for Gyokeres is approximately £63 million.
