Newcastle United are heading into their first summer transfer window since they became the richest club in the world - but they are reportedly still set to scour the loan market for new recruits.
The Magpies became the richest club in football when they were taken over by a Saudi-backed consortium in a £305million deal last year, and they went on to spend in excess of £80million on five new players in the winter transfer window to avoid dropping out of the Premier League.
Since boosting their squad in January, Eddie Howe has led the club away from relegation danger and is now on the verge of guiding the club to an unexpected top-half finish. With just a handful of games remaining before the current campaign concludes, all eyes are now fixed firmly on the summer transfer window.
