Will Osula and Lloyd Kelly were the only two first-team squad additions Newcastle United made in last summer's transfer window, and well, to say they have had little impact this season would be an understatement.
Indeed, Lloyd Kelly was moved on in January when an opportunity for the former Bournemouth man to move to Italian giants Juventus came around, and now that his loan deal has been made permanent, that just leaves young Danish forward Will Osula, who signed from Sheffield United for around £15 million.
The 21-year-old has endeared himself well to the Toon Army, but hasn't really had much of an impact on the first team this season.
He has managed two goals in his minimal appearances, a rocket of a shot against Bromley in the FA Cup and a sublime header to round off the scoring against Ipswich in the Premier League last month.

Newcastle look set to keep Will Osula at the club next season
There has been talk that Osula could leave the club to go out on loan next season in order to find regular first-team football to aid his development, but Craig Hope has written in his Newcastle Confidential column for the Daily Mail that he's now likely to be kept at St James' Park.
Hope claims that staff have been impressed with Osula's development this season and are keen to keep him around to see how he continues to develop.
Hopefully, that means more game time for the wildcard forward, whose raw power and pace make him a force to be reckoned with.

In behind-the-scenes videos put out by the club this season, other players have identified WIll Osula as a bundle of energy, with Dan Burn stating that Osula would be his nightmare roommate.
His loud, hyper nature gives off massive ADHD vibes, and that's probably part of what makes him so unpredictable on the pitch, which is something that we imagine is being worked on.
ADHD or not, we love Will Osula and hope that he can reach the potential that Jason Tindall spotted in him at Sheffield United.
