We could see a major transformation at the club this summer as Eddie Howe is given his first summer window to shape and mould the squad.
Of course, new ownership also brings the expectation that Newcastle will be busy in the market and explore a great amount of options to strengthen their team.
Naturally, with any arrivals must come departures as Newcastle have to initially balance their inflated squad for next season whilst also trying to keep one eye on the future.
And of course, there are plenty members of the current squad whose immediate future may be uncertain but who will all believe they are able to play a role in the club’s future.
Here, we take a look at five players Newcastle United should buy, five that they may offload, and five that they should do their utmost to try and keep hold of this summer:

5. SELL - Dwight Gayle
Every time a transfer window rolls around, Gayle is linked with a move away from the club with Championship sides often interested in his services. This summer, it does feel like Gayle will depart and at 32, he still has a couple of seasons left to impress wherever he ends up. Photo: Michael Regan
6. KEEP - Callum Wilson
Wilson may have had his fair share of injury problems whilst at the club, however, there’s no denying his ability in-front of goal and this is something that Newcastle will want to keep hold of. They may look to strengthen with another striker in the summer, but to have Wilson and Chris Wood as back-ups will only improve depth in their squad. Photo: Stu Forster
7. BUY - Darwin Nunez
It would take a club-record fee to lure Nunez away from Benfica, however, the striker has shown his immense quality on a consistent basis this season and could be the man for Newcastle to build a team around for years to come. Photo: JOHN THYS
8. SELL - Ciaran Clark
Clark’s six year spell at Newcastle looks like being over after he was left out of the 25-man squad in January. He’s been a solid servant for the club but with Dan Burn, Fabian Schar, Jamaal Lascelles and Federico Fernandez all currently ahead of him in the pecking order, an exit this summer is likely.
