Newcastle United expected a fairly busy January transfer window and that's exactly what they got.
Given the Magpies' league position and the completion of their £305m Saudi-led takeover back in October, Newcastle were going to try and add reinforcements and they have done just that.
Five players have come through the door, including two on deadline day, and it's safe to say Eddie Howe has bolstered his squad with a number of quality additions as they aim to stay in the Premier League.

Although there may be some frustration that Newcastle didn't end up signing another attacker after a proposed deal to sign Hugo Ekiteke from Reims fell through, Howe will surely be pleased with the business they've managed to complete.
Here are the full ins and outs from a hectic January 2022.

Kieran Trippier from Atletico Madrid (£12million plus add ons)
Trippier became Newcastle's first addition of the transfer window after he made the move back to English football from Madrid and he has made quite the impact in his time at the club so far.
The 31-year-old, who put pen to paper on a two-and-a-half year deal, won Man of the Match during the Mapgies' crucial 1-0 win at Leeds United last time out and will be an important part of the new-look side moving forward.
Chris Wood from Burnley (£25million)
After Callum Wilson picked up a calf injury against Manchester United last month, Newcastle needed to bring in a new striker and Howe identified Wood as his man, signing a contract until 2024.
Wood made his debut in the 1-1 draw with Watford and will be hoping to add to the three goals he scored during his time at Burnley this season.
Bruno Guimaraes from Lyon (£33million plus add ons)
A talented midfielder, Guimaraes became Newcastle's third signing of the month following his big-money switch from Lyon on Sunday.
The 24-year-old has penned a four-and-a-half year deal on Tyneside and is expected to join up with his new teammates when he returns from international duty with Brazil later this week.
Matt Targett from Aston Villa (loan)
It looked as though Newcastle were making supporters wait for their first addition on deadline day, before Targett made the switch on loan for the remainder of the season from Aston Villa.
It's a position that Howe wanted to strengthen and he has brought in a player with experience and quality, who has made 17 appearances this season and can also operate at wing-back or in a back-three.
Dan Burn from Brighton & Hove Albion (£13million)
The imposing central defender made the late switch from Brighton & Hove Albion for a deal believed to be in the region of £13million.
He will compete with the likes of Jamaal Lascelles, Fabian Schar, Ciaran Clark and Federico Fernandez in the heart of United's defence.
Recalled from loans: Matt Turner (from Colchester United), Matty Longstaff (from Aberdeen), Tom Allan (from Greenock Morton)
