Simon Jordan has claimed that Newcastle United will not go under the radar in the summer transfer window despite Eddie Howe’s claim that Financial Fair Play (FFP) will severely limit their spending. Many are expecting more of the same from the Magpies on the back of their £90m January spending spree.
However, it isn’t as easy as that as the profit and sustainability rules in place in the Premier League limit the amount of on-field investment. Just over a week ago, Howe admitted that FFP will affect the business done over the summer but claimed the club will still show ambition.
Facing questions in talkSPORT’s ‘One-2-One’, Jordan was asked whether United might go under the radar. But he doesn’t believe, with the media fanfare that will surround the club’s transfer business and the demand for investment, that it is even possible.
