From Rangers and AC Milan stars to a swoop for Tottenham Hotspur trio - here is how Newcastle United’s January transfer window will look, according to Football Manager

January is expected to be a hugely busy time at St James’s Park, but also a very potentially exciting one for Newcastle United supporters.

Newcastle know that additions are desperately needed in order to survive in the Premier League this season and, for once, they have the resources and the willingness to do just this.

In the world of transfers, you can often get bogged down by the volume of players linked with your team and so here, we offer a little respite and fun.

We have used the game Football Manager to see who they believe are the most likely players to join the Magpies this month.

To do so, we simulated three January transfer windows and listed every player that joined Newcastle United.

Would you like to see any of these join this month?
