Newcastle United defender Mathieu Debuchy urges the club to buy a striker before the start of the new season.

Newcastle United defender Mathieu Debuchy has urged the club to buy a striker ahead of the new season.

The Magpies have been linked with a number of goalscorers over the past few weeks, including Darren Bent, Loic Remy and Bafetimbi Gomis.

"If we can have one more striker, that will probably be better for the team," Debuchy told the Northern Echo.

"That will help us because we have quite a small squad at the minute. I think it is important that another striker comes in to help us all out."

Newcastle get their Premier League campaign underway with a trip to Manchester City on August 19.
