Divock Origi 'among four attacking players being looked at by Newcastle'

Newcastle United are looking at a move for Divock Origi as they look for striker reinforcements following fears Callum Wilson could be out until the end of the season.

Eddie Howe's No 9 went down towards the end of the first-half of Newcastle's 1-1 draw with Manchester United on December 27, with early predictions suggesting he could be out for up to six weeks.

However, Sportsmail revealed that the striker is set to undergo a scan on Friday, with the worse case scenario set to rule the 29-year-old out for the remainder of the season in what would be a massive blow to survival hopes on Tyneside.
