Newcastle could be about to sanction two transfer exits following the re-signing of left-back from Matt Targett this week.
The Magpies first landed Targett on loan from Aston Villa in January and the 26-year-old was a regular in the line-up following his move to St James’ Park. He played 16 times in the second half of the 2021/22 Premier League campaign and, on Wednesday, re-joined Newcastle on a permanent deal in a move worth £15million.
It is the first signing of what is expected to be another hectic transfer window for Eddie Howe’s side. Newcastle splashed out £90million in January and further spending is expected ahead of the 2022/23 season as they look to improve on an 11th-place finish and push towards the European spots.
