How 19 Newcastle United January 2022 targets fared - including Leeds United and Everton stars: photo gallery
Staring down the barrel of relegation, the Magpies knew they had to act in the market in order to stave off a third relegation in just over a decade.
After a busy start to the window, one that saw them add Kieran Trippier and Chris Wood to their ranks early on, the Magpies had a quiet couple of weeks before a flurry of action at the end of the month.
Matt Targett, Dan Burn and Bruno Guimaraes also joined during the dying hours of the window - but plenty of others were linked with a move to the club.
Here, we take a look at what has happened to 19 players that were linked with a move to Newcastle United last January.

5. Ousmane Dembele
Dembele’s time at Barcelona looked like being over last winter, with Newcastle among many clubs eyeing a pre-contract deal, but the Frenchman has enjoyed a resurgence and is now regarded as one of Xavi’s key players. He helped France reach the World Cup Final in Qatar. Photo: David Ramos

6. Todd Cantwell
Cantwell has recently joined Rangers after failing to impress at Carrow Road this season. In truth, Cantwell’s form had been declining for a while and a change of scenery was required to kickstart his career. Photo: Marc Atkins

7. Philippe Coutinho
Coutinho was tempted back to England by Steven Gerrard as he linked up with his former teammate at Villa Park. After impressing during his time on-loan, Villa made his initial loan deal into a permanent one this summer. The Brazilian has failed to register a goal or an assist in all competitions this season.

8. Anthony Martial
The Frenchman’s career at Manchester United looked all-but over last winter as he moved to Sevilla on-loan. However, Erik Ten Hag’s appointment saw Martial become a key player at Old Trafford once again before injury halted his progress. Photo: Michael Regan
