Earlier in the summer, Newcastle made a £45 million offer for Elanga, but it was rejected by Nottingham Forest. However, the club has now returned with a revised bid of £55 million.
According to recent reports, Newcastle is pushing to finalize the deal and bring Elanga to the team. This move is part of the club's efforts to sign a new forward, as they were previously interested in Joao Pedro but missed out on him.
Additionally, Newcastle has been linked to West Ham's Mohammed Kudus, who is expected to leave the club this summer.
