Eddie Howe has dropped a hint over Newcastle United's spending power this summer with the Financial Fair Play rules set to impact the next window.
Howe spent £91million in January and there have been reports that this summer's budget could be even less, although a similar spending spree to the winter window would not be against the rules and there are loan deals and free transfers to factor in too. But Howe is preparing an important trading period.
Speaking at his Press conference ahead of Monday's clash with Arsenal, Howe said: "FFP does impact what we can do in the summer but it doesn't mean we're totally without ambition. We're well aware that we have to change the squad and we have to make improvements but it's going to be a difficult balance."
