Newcastle have scouted playmaker with 22 goal contributions frequently

Newcastle United are reportedly keeping tabs on the RB Leipzig midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai.

The 22-year-old Hungarian has been a key player for the German club scoring 9 goals and picking up 13 assists across all competitions.

According to Sky Sports, Newcastle have been scouting the player regularly in recent weeks and it remains to be seen whether they follow up with a concrete bid for the player at the end of the season.

It is no secret that Newcastle will need to add more goals and creativity to the side and Szoboszlai would be a quality acquisition.

The 22-year-old Hungarian operates as the central attacking midfielder and he could link the Newcastle midfield with the attack. He will also add some much-needed creativity in the final third. Furthermore, the midfielder is an expert in set-pieces and his arrival will add a new dimension to the Newcastle attack.

Newcastle have drawn quite a few league matches this year and they will need to convert those draws into wins next year. Signing a quality attacker will certainly help in that regard.
