Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin is the subject of serious interest from Newcastle United.
The Magpies are eyeing a 35 million move for the England forward this winter or in the summer.
Despite having Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson, Howe wants to boost his attacking options.
Per The Sun, an offer could arrive for Calvert-Lewin as early as this month.
While the club are not eager to sell, their financial situation may force their hand.
Newcastle could be looking to move on Chris Wood to make room for Calvert-Lewin.
