Newcastle United has reportedly reached an agreement on personal terms with Wolves striker Jorgen Strand Larsen, as it scrambles to conclude the summer transfer window on a high note amid the ongoing Alexander Isak saga.

The Magpies kicked off their Premier League season without a recognised centre-forward in their ranks, with Isak on strike and Callum Wilson having departed on a free transfer to West Ham.

Howe is keen to sign two strikers before the window shuts on September 1, amidst uncertainty surrounding Isak following his public expression of anger at the club for blocking a move to Liverpool.



This has led Newcastle to target Strand Larsen, who scored 14 goals in 35 Premier League matches last season.

The Express and Star reports that while Newcastle has yet to engage in discussions with Wolves, it has made headway with the Norway international.

Having spent last season on loan, Strand Larsen only became a permanent fixture at the club earlier this summer.

Wolves shelled out $31M (£23m) to Celta Vigo to secure his services permanently, having initially paid $3.4M (£2.5m) as a loan fee.

Jorgen Strand Larsen is a Newcastle target.

All of this unfolds whilst Isak remains isolated at Newcastle, training alone, awaiting Liverpool's next move.

The Reds have yet to table a second proposal following their initial £110m approach being turned down, but Isak broke his silence this week
