Sunderland Eye Shock Swoop for Long-Term Newcastle Target After Surprise Exit
Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s name has been regularly tied to Newcastle United since Eddie Howe’s arrival, with the striker once seen as a possible fix for the club’s attacking depth issues. Yet, despite the persistent links, many Magpies supporters remained unconvinced, viewing him as a downgrade on Callum Wilson. Now, as the 27-year-old considers his next move following a nine-year spell at Everton, it’s newly-promoted Sunderland who are reportedly eyeing the free agent. Surprisingly, even Newcastle fans admit that, while they never wanted him at St James’ Park, Calvert-Lewin could be a smart addition for their rivals, offering much-needed Premier League experience to a thin Sunderland squad.
