Newcastle have been handed the chance to end their hellish striker conundrum by signing Dusan Vlahovic from Juventus.
But the Italian giants want something in exchange: star midfielder Sandro Tonali.
The Magpies are looking for a new striker after Alexander Isak told St James' Park chiefs that he wants to leave ahead of their pre-season tour.
Gazzaetta dello Sport report that Newcastle have been offered the chance to sign the Serbian through intermediaries - with a huge catch.
Juventus are dreaming of signing Tonali, with manager Igor Tudor and club chief Giorgio Chiellini in agreement that he's the right man to solve their issues in midfield.
The problem is that Newcastle consider the 25-year-old, who's happy in the north east, unsellable, so Juve have come up with an ambitious proposal.

In exchange for Tonali, the Italian giants would offer a cash sum plus Vlahovic and one of midfielder Douglas Luiz or right-back Nicolo Savona.
Vlahovic only scored 10 Serie A goals last term, hardly fitting of the £66.6m which Juve paid to sign him in January 2022.
Should Newcastle swap Sandro Tonali for cash and two Juventus players?
Vlahovic has the physical presence to step into Isak's shoes but even with Luiz or Savona to boot, allowing Tonali to leave would be a huge gamble.
Newcastle won't be short of change if Isak leaves, too, demanding a British record fee.
