Newcastle are weighing up a transfer move for a young attacker in the January transfer window.

The Magpies failed to secure a more creative forward in the summer transfer window.

Now they may go after Southampton youngster Carlos Alcaraz in January, per talkSPORT.

Newcastle want to sign a creative midfielder after missing out on James Maddison to Tottenham.

The England international was a big target for the Magpies, but they were unable to agree a fee with Leicester City.

Maddison was also happy to sign for Spurs, even though they are not in any European competition this season.
