Former Aston Villa player Gabby Agbonlahor has claimed Emily Smith Rowe will find it difficult to get into the first team of Newcastle.
This comes after rumours surfaced on Newcastle’s interest in the 23 year old.
Rowe who was a guaranteed starter for Arsenal in the 2021-22 season but has lost his place after been ruled out for several months due to injury.
Speaking via Football Insider, Agbonlahor stated:
“He can be a good squad player for Newcastle. But that’s the problem. He’d be leaving Arsenal for another club where he isn’t going to start.”
“Let’s not forget, Newcastle have got Willock coming back in that position. He was brilliant last season and has been completely forgotten about by everyone.“
“They’ve also got Guimaraes in that area.“If he came to Newcastle, he’d have to fight for a position. It’s not going to be guaranteed.”
