Newcastle United need marquee signing in January transfer window to ensure Champions League spot

Newcastle Newcastle United Eddie Howe UEFA Champions League Toon EPL Arsenal Claudio Ranieri Leeds United Magpies

There is no place for sentiment in football. All you have to do is look across the rest of the Premier League in recent times. Thomas Tuchel, despite delivering the Champions League - gone. Marcelo Bielsa, the best Leeds United manager in a generation - gone. Perhaps most shockingly, Claudio Ranieri was given the bullet just nine months after winning the Premier League with Leicester City.

Up until now, Newcastle United’s players have delivered beyond everyone’s wildest expectations this season. Even the most optimistic Toon supporter would not have predicted their club to be sitting third in the Premier League at the start of 2023.

If everybody is being honest, Eddie Howe has the Magpies punching well above their weight. Newcastle are not one of the best teams on paper but, fortunately for Tyneside, this sport is played on grass.
