Former Newcastle United forward Adam Campbell is assessing his next move after leaving Hartlepool United last month. Campbell, who joined Hartlepool in the summer of 2024, marked his debut with an assist for Jack Hunter in a 1-0 win against Yeovil. His first season brought two goals and one further assist, but his output improved last season, delivering nine goal involvements in 32 appearances. According to Sunderland Echo, the 31-year-old has held talks with clubs in the National League and National League North. Campbell's senior career began in 2012 when he became Newcastle United's youngest European player, coming on in a Europa League tie at Greek side Atromitos. He expects his next step to be at that level, which could depend on other factors. Campbell said this summer has been slow for movement, though activity has picked up over the last week to 10 days. He has met managers and spoken to others by phone, and remains positive about what comes next. The former Gateshead forward helped Crawley Town win promotion to League One just weeks before joining Hartlepool. His experience and goal involvements make him an attractive signing for clubs in the National League and National League North. As the transfer window progresses, Campbell's next move will be closely watched by Hartlepool's fans and the football community. And with his contract now expired, Campbell is free to explore new opportunities. But for now, he remains focused on finding the right fit. So, what's next for Adam Campbell? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain - his next move will be closely followed by Hartlepool United fans.
