Much will depend on Tottenham's Premier League status, but Solanke is well known to Eddie Howe who worked with the forward previously at Bournemouth. Newcastle are facing a summer of change and are assessing potential new additions at striker as Will Osula, scorer of a wonder goal against Manchester United last week, is wanted by a number of clubs including Crystal Palace and Aston Villa. Solanke, now 28, is key to Spurs' plans as they would want to keep him even if they went down. However, despite struggling with injury this season, he is still a proven Premier League performer and will be in demand. He has made just 14 appearances this season but still managed five goals, all since January, in a struggling side devoid of confidence. Dominic Solanke is emerging as a potential transfer target for Newcastle this summer Tottenham face a decisive couple of weeks with interim manager Igor Tudor under increasing pressure to turn out a positive result from their next games with Atletico Madrid and, more importantly, Solanke's former side Liverpool or face the sack. Following their defeat by Crystal Palace on Thursday which left them just one point ahead of 18th placed West Ham United and staring at the prospect of relegation for the first time in 49 years, Solanke said: 'We've just had a big conversation. We know the position we are in is definitely not where we want to be so we need to figure out how we are going to get out of it as soon as possible. 'We know there's been difficulties but we're not in a position to make any excuses anymore. 'We need to do the job on the pitch and I think it is easy to say that we want to be better, but we need to make sure we are better on the pitch. '
