Aghehowa joined Porto from Atletico Madrid a year ago and has since established himself as a promising player. His impressive goal-scoring record has caught the attention of several clubs, including Newcastle United.

Although no formal bid has been made, Newcastle is expected to take steps to pursue Aghehowa in the coming days. The club's interest in Aghehowa comes after missing out on another target, Benjamin Sesko, who is set to join Manchester United instead.
