      His 12 goals in 19 Premier League matches are already double his previous best tally in the competition.
      Eddie Howe is now reportedly eyeing a move for Solanke as he looks to sign a striker this month.
      Callum Wilson is currently sidelined with a calf injury which is expected to keep him out until at least the trip to Aston Villa on January 30.
      That injury leaves Alexander Isak as Newcastle’s only available senior centre forward.

      According to The Telegraph, the Magpies have made an approach to Bournemouth for Solanke in a bid to solve their striker crisis.
      However, the Cherries have responded by telling them that they are unwilling to sell the forward this month.
      Solanke has also been tipped as a potential January target for Arsenal after being identified as an alternative to Brentford’s Ivan Toney.
      The former Liverpool striker still has three-and-a-half years remaining on his contract at the Vitality Stadium after signing an extension in September.

      His 12-goal Premier League haul this season has only been bettered by Erling Haaland and Mohamed Salah.
      Those strikes include a brace in a 2-0 home win over Newcastle in November.

      Solanke’s form could even see him recalled to the England set-up by Gareth Southgate.
      He has not been capped by the Three Lions since making his senior international debut against Brazil in 2017. More

      Sancho dropped a major hint that the deal is done as he liked a post about the transfer from journalist Fabrizio Romano.
      The tweet states that the winger will head to Germany later today.
      It also claims that Dortmund will not have an option to buy him when the loan finishes and they will pay just a portion of his wages.
      Reports suggest that Sancho earns £290,000-a-week at Man Utd and his parent club will have to cover a third of his salary.

      But Old Trafford sources say representatives from Marseille remain in touch with United over the chance of a loan move for Martial during this January transfer window.
      However, any deal relies on the player being willing to go back to his homeland, which could prove to be a sticking point.
      Our source said: “Interest remains high in Anthony.
      “His stock may be low at Manchester United but there is interest among clubs in Europe for him.

      “Marseille are at the front of the queue and are in touch with United about taking Anthony on loan in January. 
      “The problem is the player himself.
      “As things stand, he is planning on seeing his deal out and then reconsidering his options in the summer.
      “Anthony sees his next move as crucial, so he has no plans to rush into making any decisions over his future.”

      Martial, 28, is out of contract at the end of the season and Erik ten Hag stunned fans recently by claiming that United were in talks with the forward over a new deal.
      They have the option to trigger a 12-month extension to his current contract.
      The Dutchman said: “We are talking with Raphael Varane and Anthony Martial.
      “That is an internal discussion between the club and the player.”

      But contrary to Ten Hag’s comments, reports suggest the Red Devils are planning to part ways with the Frenchman after nine years at Old Trafford.
      The former Lyon and Monaco attacker has scored just 12 Premier League goals over the past three-and-a-half seasons – including one in 2023-24 – and it seems that United have finally run out of patience with him.
      The club’s preference would be to sell him this January and recoup some money rather than let him leave on a free in the summer.
      But this also depends on whether United can sign a replacement.

      The likes of Timo Werner and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting have been linked, but the former has opted for Spurs.

      Hull put together a photo-shopped version of the famous TV programme “Blind Date” which was hosted by Cilla Black.
      The premise of the show was that one person would ask three potential dates a series of questions without seeing them, before eventually choosing one to go out with.
      The edited clip saw Cilla with a Liverpool crest on her head, Carvalho mocked up as the woman choosing the date, and a Hull badge on the person she chose.
      It also contained Leeds and Southampton badges for the two people who had been snubbed by the woman.

      Hannibal has struggled for game time so far this season
      And Old Trafford sources say he is close to agreeing a Goodison switch.
      The source said: “Everton want the player and Manchester United are happy for him to go out on loan. They’d prefer him to stay in the Premier League as it will provide a better barometer and benchmark for his abilities as a player.
      “If he can go out on loan to Everton and make an impression, he could force his way into content at United.
      “He’s highly thought of at United and by Ten Hag, but he will get more chances at Everton. Sean Dyche is a big fan, and he thinks the player can give them a different edge to their game. He’s become the number one January priority.

      “He also wants to bring in a striker and a full back. But loan deals are likely to be the road he goes down to beef up his squad.”
      Our story comes one day after Hannibal was linked with a switch to Spanish giants Sevilla.
      The Tunisian has been a regular in match-day squads this season but has struggled for minutes on the pitch and is eager to get further experience of first-team football.
      United recently triggered a clause to extend Hannibal’s contract.

      He was the subject of interest from a number of clubs over the summer and had the chance to join Besiktas on loan but the midfielder wanted to stay and fight for his place under Erik ten Hag after impressing at Birmingham in the Championship last season.
      However, with United having been knocked out of the Champions League and the Carabao Cup, opportunities for Mejbri could be limited in the second half of the season.
      The source added: “It’s unlikely any loan move will have an option for a permanent switch. Ten Hag wants to assess how Hannibal does and then make a firm decision about his future in the summer.” More

      Neville claims Casemiro doesn’t fit Man Utd’s long-term plans
      The Brazil international has since put together a series of impressive performances and amassed a total of 11 goals and seven assists in 63 appearances.
      However, Neville still believes the experienced No6 doesn’t fit the Red Devils’ long-term plans or the wage structure.
      And that is why the Sky Sports pundit is adamant that this United signing should have never gone through “a good sporting director, a good owner, and a good head of recruitment”.
      And that is also why the ex-England international believes the manager of a club, such as Erik ten Hag, shouldn’t have the final saying on signings as he is focused on the short-term.

      Neville said on the latest edition of Stick to Football as per Sky Bet: “Coming in from an owner’s perspective, you employ a head of recruitment who you think is the best guy out there at spotting talent, that will bring value to your club.
      “You’ve got a sporting director equally, who will be thinking the same way – their loyalty is to the club and to make sure we win games.
      “A manager’s job is purely to think about the immediate short term and getting results for himself.
      “Casemiro is perfect example of a short-term signing that is going to cost in the long term.

      “That signing never should have gone through a good sporting director, a good owner, and a good head of recruitment.

      “He doesn’t fit the long-term, the wage [structure]… The wages are crazy and the length of contract is crazy.” More
