Middlesbrough striker Will Lankshear has emerged as a transfer target for Newcastle United following an impressive start to the 2026/27 Championship season.
The 20-year-old forward scored Middlesbrough's second goal in a match against Charlton Athletic at the Riverside Stadium on October 31, 2026, continuing his productive run in the Sky Bet Championship.
According to reports, Newcastle's scouting department has been monitoring Lankshear's progress closely, with the Premier League club considering a move for the academy graduate in upcoming transfer windows.
Lankshear, who came through Middlesbrough's youth system, has featured prominently under manager Michael Carrick this season, adding goals to his all-round forward play.
