Newcastle United striker William Osula may not be enjoying regular minutes under Eddie Howe, but according to his agent, the young forward remains fully committed to the club’s project and has no plans to leave St James’ Park anytime soon.
Osula, who joined Newcastle in a promising move from Sheffield United, was seen as one of the bright attacking prospects set to develop under Howe’s system. However, his opportunities have been limited this season, with Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson often preferred in the pecking order. Despite that, his representative insists that Osula is patient and focused on improving.
> “William is happy at Newcastle,” his agent told reporters. “Of course, every player wants to play more, but he understands the competition here. He trains hard every day, the manager believes in his potential, and there are no intentions of leaving the club — not in January, not in the summer.”
Those comments come amid growing speculation linking the Danish-born attacker with a possible loan move away from the club to gain experience. But it seems Newcastle are intent on keeping him close, believing he could still play an important role as the season progresses.
Insiders at the club also suggest that Howe admires Osula’s attitude, describing him as a humble professional who “never complains and gives his all in training.” With the Magpies fighting on multiple fronts — including the Premier League and domestic cup competitions — Osula could soon get his chance to prove his worth.
For now, his camp has made it clear: he’s staying put. The 21-year-old is reportedly focused on breaking into the starting lineup rather than seeking an exit, embodying the kind of patience and persistence Eddie Howe values in his players.
If Osula continues to maintain that work ethic and composure, his breakthrough moment at Newcastle may just be around the corner.
