Future is up in the air for striker Osula
The Journal
|December 31, 2025
WILLIAM Osula is facing talks on his future at Newcastle United with the January transfer window about to open for business.
Alfie Harrison
The Denmark Under-21 international has not featured since November 2 and has now missed 16 games through injury.
He is expected back from an ankle problem in mid-January, but a big decision is due on whether the Magpies look to cash in on the 22-year-old.
Osula was not satisfied with first-team opportunities earlier in the campaign after only making one Premier League start this season away to Leeds.
His only other start, in the Carabao Cup, resulted in him grabbing a brace against Bradford City in the comfortable 4-1 win over the EFL side.
The £10million signing from Sheffield United in 2024 almost left in the summer window when a loan deal with Eintracht Frankfurt was fixed up. But PIF pulled the plug on a loan exit after the German club refused to agree to an obligation to buy once a £21m fee was put in place.
