Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe remains calm on the recruitment front despite 50 per cent of the allotted time in the January window used up.
Howe stated on Friday that he was still considering 'all positions' this month but was linked with a deep-lying midfielder in Wolverhampton's Ruben Neves over the weekend. With 18 months left of the Portugal star's contract left with Wolves the current window could be the ideal time to strike with his club not expecting him to sign a new contract.
Although, Howe stated clearly on Friday that he had not enquired about Manchester United's Scott McTominay despite multiple reports linking Newcastle with the Scotland international.
