The reported Newcastle United target is in the form of his life.
The Star reported this week that Newcastle United are considering a January move for £15 million-rated Cenk Tosun.
The Besiktas hitman has emerged as one of Turkish football’s most lethal marksmen over the past 18 months or so.
Twenty goals in 29 games last season saw Crystal Palace take an interest but Newcastle, and Tottenham Hotspur to a lesser extent, are among those tracking him now.
And if his form is anything to go by then the Magpies boss Rafael Benitez should certainly consider bringing him in – he is red hot at the moment.
Tosun scored twice in Besiktas’s 2-1 win away to Monaco in the Champions League to make it seven goals in his last nine games for club and country.
He previously bagged a brace in Turkey’s 2-2 draw with Finland last week and he is certainly responding well to the speculation over his future.
If he wants a move to England, he is going about it the right way.
