Former Newcastle player and club legend Les Ferdinand has claimed that Joelinton could be a real asset for the club in future.
The Brazilian has had a poor debut season with the Magpies and he has attracted a lot of criticism.
Newcastle paid £40m for him in the summer but the player has scored just 3 goals so far this season. He was brought in to replace the likes of Rondon and Perez.
It is evident that the signing has not worked out for Steve Bruce’s side. However, Ferdinand has urged the fans to support the player and be patient with him.
