Newcastle United have sealed deals for Yankuba Minteh, Sandro Tonal, Harvey Barnes and Tino Livramento so far this summer. Whilst Minteh will spend the season on-loan at Feyenoord, hopes are high that Tonali, Barnes and Livramento can play a major part in Newcastle’s adventures in Europe and in the Premier League this season.
The Magpies have the delicate task of balancing Champions League and Premier League football this term and are still looking for ways to strengthen their squad before the summer transfer window closes at 11pm on Friday, September 1.
But just who could those additions be? A whole host of players have been linked with a move to St James’ Park this summer and here, we take a look at what Eddie Howe’s matchday squad could look like next season based on all the latest transfer rumours:
9. RW: Miguel Almiron
Almiron has returned to goal scoring form during pre-season and will want to replicate the form he showed at the beginning of last campaign. With strong competition for places on the wing, the Paraguayan must hit the ground running. | Getty Images for Premier League
10. ST: Alexander Isak
Isak enjoyed a very good debut campaign and will be aiming to improve on his ten goal tally this time around. With two strikes against Villa, he already looks well on track to surpass that. | Getty Images
11. SUB: Anthony Gordon
Gordon has enjoyed a brilliant start to the campaign and he will want to continue to impress and stake his claim as to why he should be starting week in and week out. | Getty Images
12. SUB: Martin Dubravka
The Slovakian will act as a very able deputy to Nick Pope this season and will hope to get his fair share of game time in the cup competitions. | Getty Images
