Frank McAvennie issues transfer warning to Newcastle

Eddie Howe has a number of positions in the Newcastle squad that need strengthening this summer, but Frank McAvennie warned that the Magpies may not be able to sign their top transfer target just yet.

Newcastle accused of ‘humming and hawing’ over Tarkowski

Ciaran Clark was omitted from Newcastle United’s Premier League squad in January, so he hasn’t made an appearance for the Magpies in nearly five months. Federico Fernandez was another casualty of Eddie Howe’s appointment as manager, failing to make an appearance in 2022, so the defensive duo could be on their way out this summer.

McAvennie praises Ashworth after NUFC transfer announcements

Dan Ashworth was confirmed as Newcastle United’s Director of Football on Monday and the Magpies wasted little time completing their transfer business. Isaac Hayden joined Norwich City on a season-long loan and Matt Targett was signed permanently after impressing during his temporary stint.

Newcastle told to sign ‘fantastic’ Ivan Toney

Newcastle United aren’t short of strikers with Callum Wilson, Joelinton, Chris Wood and Dwight Gayle at their disposal, but Wilson’s had injury problems, Joelinton often plays in midfield, Wood has been short of goals and Gayle is surplus to requirements, so Eddie Howe needs a new face in attack.
