Eddie Howe wants Newcastle United to get moving in the summer transfer window in swift fashion with the ideal aim for the Magpies to have a couple of new faces on board in time for pre-season training.
United signed stars like Nick Pope, Matt Targett and Sven Botman in time for pre-season last summer and Howe would ideally like another series of quick-fire arrivals. That would make for a busy June with Howe about to learn which European competition his squad will be in next season.
Howe, who had his UK head of scouting Andy Howe in the Press conference on Friday, was quizzed on recruitment and insisted that there are no unlimited funds to burn on Tyneside. But he also stated that United would need to effectively have "two XIs" at his disposal, regardless on whether they enter the Champions League or the Europa League.
