Eddie Howe is plotting a summer move for Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay in order to get the best out of current star Bruno Guimaraes.
Newcastle United are firmly back in the race for a top-four place, with back-to-back wins leaving their Champions League destiny in their own hands. They currently sit in fifth place, two points behind Tottenham and with two games in hand.
And plans are already being set in motion for another aggressive transfer window as they look to turbocharge their development under the stewardship of the Saudi Public Investment Fund. McTominay was a target for Howe in the most recent January window, as he looked to bolster his options at the base of their midfield.
