Victor Boniface has been linked with a summer move to the Premier League after his failed transfer to Al Nassr.
Newcastle United are eyeing Bayer Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface as a potential replacement for Alexander Isak, who has plenty of suitors across Europe.
According to German outlet BILD, the Magpies are interested in signing Boniface, who has shown he can lead the line and score at a high level.
Eddie Howe is in the market for a new forward, especially with Callum Wilson's persistent injury issues and Boniface, 24, fits the bill of a young, quality goal-getter.

Nigerian gem unleashed! Meet 23-year-old David following in Boniface's footsteps in Belgium
The talented striker Promise David is the latest Nigerian making waves at Belgian club Union St. Gilloise, where Super Eagles star Victor Boniface flourished before his move to Bayer Leverkusen.
Boniface seems to be struggling for a starting spot at the moment, with just one start in his last 6 appearances.
The 24-year-old was previously linked to Al-Nassr to form a deadly partnership with Cristiano Ronaldo, but the move broke down at the last minute with the Saudi club opting to sign Jhon Duran from Aston Villa instead.
Newcastle have reportedly valued Isak at over £150 million, and if they sell their star striker, Boniface is seen as a prime replacement.
