Eddie Howe has taken a swipe at a suggestion by Liverpool chief John W Henry that Premier League spending should be limited.
Newcastle are at the start of their rebuilding under the Saudi Arabian national wealth fund, and have forked out £250 on new players in the last three transfer windows. Henry said this week that “ there should be limits on spending so that the league doesn’t go the way of European leagues where one of two clubs annually have little competition.”
Manchester City and Liverpool have fought for the title between themselves for the last four seasons. Newcastle are now a force because of their spending power, which is also restricted by FFP rules.
