Newcastle could make a bid for Wolves striker Benik Afobe, according to the Mirror. Wolves boss, Kenny Jackett has remained adamant that his star striker is going nowhere but Newcastle will test the manager's claim by showing interest in the player before the transfer window closes.The Mirror report that Steve McClaren is still on the look out for another striker and Afobe - who hit 32 goals for Wolves and MK Dons last season - could be a potential replacement for Papiss Cisse. Norwich City had a bid rejected for the 22-year-old striker earlier this week but Canaries' boss Alex Neil remained coy over questions about if his side will make another offer. Newcastle have made progress in the transfer window already this summer and signed the talented Florian Thauvin, Chancel Mbemba and Aleksandar Mitrovic but with Cisse eyeing a potential exit from the club another striker may be essential to their progress. Afobe has already got three goals to his name this season and would be a fine acquisition to Steve McClaren's side as the Magpies' pursuit of Queens Park Rangers' striker Charlie Austin seems to have come to an end.
