Newcastle United are considering a transfer for Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins to replace Callum Wilson, who is leaving this summer. With Alexander Isak as their main striker, Newcastle seeks additional cover due to Isak's occasional injuries. Ollie Watkins, attracting interest from clubs like Arsenal and Manchester United, could be tempted by Newcastle's project and Champions League football. Despite Villa's reluctance to sell, Watkins' previous interest in Arsenal might influence his decision.
