His arrival at St James&#8217; Park would also make sense when considering Woltemade&#8217;s new role.<\/p>\n<p>Newcastle thought they would welcome a new talisman when the German arrived last summer. However, it was later revealed that his profile was incorrect and that he was not a complete striker.<\/p>\n<p>Signing Vlahovic will allow Howe to move Voltemade into a deeper role without the constant criticism that the former Stuttgart player was originally signed to lead the line.<\/p>\n<p><em>Read next: Newcastle begin contract talks for \u00a335m star<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                              \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"better-than-yohanna-newcastle-talks-underway-to-sign-munoz\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<p>                        <img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"440\" height=\"248\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Victor Munoz Spain Ramin Yamal\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/victor-munoz-spain-lamine-yamal.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/victor-munoz-spain-lamine-yamal.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\"><label>related<\/label><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Better_than_Johanna_Newcastle_begin_contract_talks_for_35m_star\"><\/span>\n<p>\t\t\tBetter than Johanna: Newcastle begin contract talks for \u00a335m star<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Newcastle United are reportedly interested in signing a star player beyond Zadok Johanna. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Newcastle United have been given a boost in their battle to sign an impressive striker who is seriously considering a move to St James&#8217; Park this summer.
