Premier League side is close to signing Atalanta striker Duvan Zapata as they agree to the personal terms set by the 30-year-old Colombian ahead of a potential January transfer. Zapata is known as one of the best players in Gian Piero Gasperini’s squad, Atalanta has truly turned around their whole campaign this season to be one of the most watchable teams in Serie A currently.
In the 30-year old’s 22 appearances for La Dea this season he has scored 12 goals and seven assists and this is what the Magpies are looking for in their new recruits. The consistency as well as his form would be a great boost to Newcastle who struggles in the relegation zone this season with a lack of depth in the goalscorer department.
