Newcastle United are already preparing for the new season as Eddie Howe and his men look to build on the success of last campaign.

The Magpies will play Champions League football this coming season, but they will have to balance their European efforts with those of the Prermier League, and as the club continues to grow, more league success will be expected. To balance both, Howe is going to need some help in the transfer window, with more strength in depth required.

With that in mind, we have rounded up all the latest news and transfer rumours surrounding St James’ Park.
