# Exclusive: Pundit eager to see Abraham-Wilson strikeforce at Newcastle United

**Former Premier League striker Dean Windass loves the idea of a Tammy Abraham and Callum Wilson strikeforce at Newcastle United.**

Falling out of favour at Chelsea following the arrival of Thomas Tuchel, [£36m](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tammy-abraham/profil/spieler/331726)-rated Abraham continues to be linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge.

According to [The Northern Echo](https://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/19339038.newcastle-keen-loans-billy-gilmour-tammy-abraham/), St. James’ Park could be a possible destination for Abraham, with Newcastle said to be keen on bringing the 23-year-old forward and team-mate Billy Gilmour to the club.

For Windass, if Steve Bruce can pull it off and pair Abraham up front with Wilson, the Magpies could have quite the attack.

*“I know Steve likes to* *play three at the back, so that means you can get two up top with Callum Wilson and Tammy Abraham,”* the ex-Hull City star said to **TT**. *“What a strikeforce that’d be in the Premier League.”*

Indeed, it could be a very prolific forward line when you look at the records of the two strikers.

Wilson finished the 2020/21 season with [12](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/callum-wilson/leistungsdaten/spieler/123682) Premier League goals despite missing a lot of action due to injury, while Abraham was able to score [18](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tammy-abraham/leistungsdaten/spieler/331726/plus/0?saison=2019) goals in all competitions back in the 2019/20 campaign when he was a regular under Frank Lampard.
