Newcastle United will reportedly now make a 'bold' bid to sign Dominic Calvert-Lewin from Everton in the summer.

The Lowdown: On his way?

Transfer insider Dean Jones has claimed that there is a 'decent chance' that Calvert-Lewin will end up leaving Goodison Park this summer, with Arsenal thought to be interested in his signature.

The Merseyside club have had a very underwhelming season, and still risk relegation from the Premier League, thus the striker may want to move on to a better team, especially with the Qatar World Cup coming later this year.

The Latest: Newcastle bid

Writing in his latest piece for The Daily Telegraph, reliable journalist Luke Edwards has revealed that the Magpies will now launch a 'bold' bid for Calvert-Lewin this summer, given that they have secured their top-flight status for next season.

That is not the case for the Toffees, who may be forced to sell if they end up relegated down to the Championship - although that does look unlikely barring a monumental collapse from this point.

The Verdict: Keep

Frank Lampard's team must make sure that they can keep Calvert-Lewin at all costs, especially if they end up staying up.

Dubbed a 'top striker' by former Blues manager Carlo Ancelotti, the Englishman was perhaps at his best under the Italian, managing to score 29 goals and make a further six assists in 60 games in total over all competitions (Transfermarkt).

He has unfortunately been plagued by injuries this campaign, but there is no doubting his qualities when fit, and so he would be a very difficult player to replace.
