STRIKER SEARCH STARTED


Newcastle United boss Sir Bobby Robson posted chief scout Charlie Woods out to the continent over the weekend and is considering a January move for a new striker.

Craig Bellamy and Lomana LuaLua will be absent for the first two months next year.

"We're probably going to lose LuaLua and that'll be a bad for us. Bellamy won't be back by then," said Robson.

"I've spoken to LuaLua about the African Nations Cup and I got the message that he wants to play.

"It's one less option for us at a difficult time, but it gives us an opportunity to look at the situation here and make recommendations to the chairman."
