Howe warns summer signings ‘play for the badge’
Eddie Howe has issued any summer signings with a simple but all-important message: play for the badge. This will be the first summer window under the Saudi-backed ownership, with Newcastle expected to splash the cash in order to challenge for European football next season.
But the Magpies boss has admitted it is ‘vitally important’ that any new recruits understand what it means to play for Newcastle United. "It's vitally important that anyone we recruit understands what it means to play for the badge, for the club, and carries that burden that it brings but in a positive way,” He said. “We will take that very seriously and anyone we bring in needs to understand when they enter the building here what it means to everybody."
