Report: Newcastle United eye £25m move for Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard

Newcastle United are reportedly weighing up a £25m offer for Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard.

The Magpies are believed to be planning a major squad overhaul as they await confirmation of a £300m buyout backed by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund.

According to The Sun, the buying consortium are particularly keen to strengthen United's attack, with Celtic ace Edouard a possible option.

The 22-year-old has scored 27 goals in all competitions for the Glasgow outfit this term, 22 of those coming in the Scottish Premiership.

However, the same report indicates that United are also eyeing up Alfredo Morelos, whose future at Rangers has recently been called into question.
