Newcastle United has already begun planning for the upcoming season with a prominent name at the top of their list of acquisitions: Liam Delap. The 22-year-old English forward has shone brightly at Ipswich Town, and his performance has not gone unnoticed by the Magpies, who aim to strengthen with talent and potential for their return to the Champions League.

According to The Telegraph, Newcastle sees Delap as an ideal reinforcement to enhance the team's offensive capabilities in a season where maximum demands are expected in both the Premier League and Europe. The operation may not be simple but is quite clear: if Ipswich fails to secure their stay (which seems increasingly unlikely), Delap's departure would be valued at around 36 million euros, the amount stipulated in his release clause.

Seeking more quality firepower in the attack

Eddie Howe aims to provide his squad with greater depth and quality, particularly in attack, and Delap's profile fits perfectly with that vision. Powerful, fast, and with a knack for scoring goals, the forward developed at Manchester City has established himself this season as one of the great promises of English football.

At St. James’ Park, they are confident in securing his signing early to kickstart what is expected to be an ambitious summer. Newcastle aims to once again compete with Europe's elite, with Delap potentially being the first step on that path.
