The January transfer window is now open and Newcastle United have another opportunity to strengthen Eddie Howe’s squad. The club had two disappointing windows in 2024 with no senior player signed in January and only Lloyd Kelly and Will Osula signed as senior outfield players during the summer. PSR constraints will likely bite again this winter, but there could be some wiggle room afforded if they are able to sell a couple of players.
The January window, however, is always a notoriously difficult window to operate in and one that will likely see Newcastle hit a number of hurdles in both buying and selling players. Here, though, we take a look at what Newcastle United’s new-look squad could look like based on all the latest transfer rumours.
