Newcastle United are said to be interested in snapping up the Roma forward.
Salomon Rondon has led the line for Newcastle this season, and he has done a credible job.
However, there are some doubts over whether the Venezuelan’s loan move will be converted to a permanent one.
While most Newcastle fans are behind the idea of bringing Rondon to St. James’ Park on a longer-term basis, if the opportunity to sign Dzeko arose then he would be an upgrade.
Dzeko has hit five goals in six Champions League games this season, to prove he can still score at the very highest level.
If Newcastle could bring him to Tyneside then he would be a seriously high calibre addition to Rafael Benitez’s squad.
Newcastle have generally avoided bringing in ageing players in recent times, but Dzeko would be the sort of signing they should break their transfer policy on.
And if the Magpies can complete a deal for the Bosnian then it would be a seriously exciting signing for Benitez’s side.
