Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez believes Salomon Rondon will need more time to settle in.
The West Brom forward joined the Magpies on loan this summer and he was expected to solve Newcastle’s goalscoring problems. However, the Venezuelan is still getting to grips with Newcastle’s style of play and the performances have been underwhelming so far.
Rondon has scored just once in four games for Newcastle and although his hold up play has been decent, he is lacking in sharpness in front of the goal.
Benitez has now admitted that the fans will need to be patient with Rondon.
