Newcastle fans have been debating whether they should make a summer swoop for West Brom’s Salomon Rondon, and fans are completely split on signing the striker.
Last week, a report from Sky Sports claimed Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan were both interested in signing Salomon Rondon, but there have been plenty of suggestions that Newcastle should hijack the move.
Rondon, who was relegated with the Baggies this season, could elect to stay in England, and the Magpies will surely be front of the queue to sign him given their goalscoring woes this season.

The colossal striker, who has 19 goals in 66 caps for Venezuela, could be exactly the type of target man Rafael Benitez is looking for, with Aleksandar Mitrovic likely to leave the club and Islam Slimani not impressing during his loan stay on Tyneside.
Rondon scored seven times in the Premier League for West Brom last season, grabbing three of those and also two assists in a stretch of six games earlier this year.
The powerful striker is certainly not world class, but the Magpies are desperately short of goals, and a cut price deal for the Venezuelan could save money to reinvest in other areas.
Fans clearly can’t decide on a move though, with just 47 per cent saying they would back a summer swoop.
