The January transfer window is a big moment for various clubs, especially those who are looking to complete the puzzle in order to reach the goals that have been set. One of the most intriguing clubs for the transfer window this winter is certainly Newcastle.
After their takeover was completed, there has been a lot of talk about how much money Newcastle will spend this winter, especially given the fact that they are currently in the relegation zone. The amount of money lost, as well as momentum, would be huge and something that the club simply cannot see happening.
With that in mind, they are likely to spend money, even if they cannot attract the huge names that have been rumoured to be heading to the club.
Will Newcastle Spend and Survive?
The feeling is that the current Newcastle team has a chance of getting out of the relegation zone, and with reinforcements, they are even more likely to. The feeling is that they will go down the route of bringing in players that are comfortable with the Premier League, which is something that should help them adjust and get points on the board quickly.
Given that teams such as Norwich, Burnley, Watford and Crystal Palace are all down near the bottom and struggling for form right now, Newcastle have every chance of getting out. While they are towards the bottom in the standings, bookmakers don’t have them as favourites to go down. The Premier League relegation battle is one of the most fascinating betting markets to watch, often with special betting offers attached to it, and other Premier League markets. Should things go badly for Newcastle, they are going to be talked about in this market, but if they get their January transfers right, they should have the ability to pull away.
Who are the Names to Look Out For?
We have seen a few rumours surrounding Newcastle and the players they are going to try and sign this January. Most of these are Premier League based, and on top of that, they are also players who are unhappy at their current clubs and want to move.
One of the most commonly mentioned players has been Dele Alli of Tottenham, who is not happy with the game time he is receiving at Spurs. On top of that, Newcastle would like to improve their defence and one player mentioned to do that has been James Tarkowski from Burnley, while his team mate Ben Mee is another mentioned.
If you wanted to strengthen your defence but do it without too much fuss, bringing in a pairing from another club is certainly a way of doing that.
Jesse Lingard of Manchester United is another player that has been mentioned, and again, this is a player who isn’t happy with his current club and role.
All of these players would help, and probably be enough to get Newcastle out of trouble this season, so they can spend the summer planning how they are going to go forward.
