Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl has predicted that Premier League clubs will be busier in the final fortnight of the transfer window as Newcastle United look to make a breakthrough.
Newcastle are still pushing to bring in at least another forward before the window shuts on September 1. Newcastle have had two bids turned down for Watford star Joao Pedro, but the Magpies have not given up on signing the Brazilian.
Newcastle will also dip into the loan market for the right player and Eddie Howe's side have already registered their interest in Christian Pulisic, Conor Gallagher, Armando Broja and Callum Hudson-Odoi at Chelsea. Although Chelsea will be among those sides looking to make the most of the new five subs rule, the Blues will let some fringe players go out on loan if they manage to get the signings they want before deadline day.
