Newcastle United are yet to sign a player this month, but they have still been linked with a plethora of players from across the footballing world. Whilst finances are tight, they could still dip into the market between now and deadline day.
Although there may be few new faces this month, there could be a few departures with the club eager to sort out loan deals for some of their promising talents, whilst also keen to offload some players off their wage bill. However, it isn’t just the fringe players of Eddie Howe’s squad that have been linked with a move away from the club this month with a couple of first-team regulars reportedly garnering interest from abroad.
Here, we assess Newcastle United’s potential transfer business in the final fortnight of the window to see whether what deals are done, what are close to completing, ones that maybe could happen and those that are unlikely:
21. OUT: Callum Wilson (unlikely)
Wilson has attracted attention from England, Italy and Spain in recent times but Howe has recently stated it wouldn’t make sense for Newcastle to allow Wilson to leave without a replacement. Sourcing one between now and Thursday would be very hard to do. | Newcastle United via Getty Image
22. IN: Pierre-Emile Hjobjerg (maybe)
The Spurs man has emerged as a potential loan option this month and with Phillips now off the cards, he could be the man Newcastle turn to. Although his club will likely play a hard bargain and be reluctant to strengthen one of their rivals, it could be one to watch. | Getty Images
23. OUT: Miguel Almiron (maybe)
Almiron seems the most likely of any first-team players to leave Tyneside this month, but as it stands there is a lot of work to do if he is to move to Saudi Arabia before the deadline. | AFP via Getty Images
