Newcastle United may have a quieter January transfer window than their last two efforts in the winter window as Financial Fair Play constraints limit their options this month. The club may add to Eddie Howe’s squad, but this will likely be through loan deals.
They also have a number of players that have been linked with leaving the club this month, either on loan or on permanent moves. But what is the current state of play with these moves and what’s the latest on any potential incoming transfers? Here, we take a look at all the latest transfer rumours surrounding Newcastle United:
5. Bruno Guimaraes
PSG have been linked with a move for Guimaraes, but FFP concerns may mean they are unable to fund a move for him this month. Could be a deal that is revisited in the summer.
6. Yankuba Minteh
Minteh, who is currently representing Gambia at the African Cup of Nations, has impressed at Feyenoord and been linked with a move back to his parent club. Newcastle United have no recall clause, however, and thus will have to negotiate with the Eredivisie club should they want to recall the winger.
7. Dominic Solanke
Newcastle United have reportedly enquired about the Bournemouth striker, but the Cherries are unwilling to see him leave this month. A move for Solanke is very unlikely this window because of the finances that will be involved to tempt his club into a sale.
8. Kalvin Phillips
Phillips has been on Newcastle’s radar for some time now as the club look to strengthen their midfield options. A move for Phillips would likely be a loan but City are reportedly demanding a fee of around £7m with an obligation to buy at the end of the season.
