Champions League striker could still be at St James’ Park

Newcastle United did not exactly have their return to the big stage they would have wished for. It was a rather disappointing Champions League campaign.

Although there were some mightily entertaining games, overall – Eddie Howe’s side simply did not get the results they needed to progress in Europe”s greatest knockout tournament.

Could things have been different if they’d kept a striker still playing in the elusive competition?

Eddie Howe future

It has not been an easy season for Newcastle United – particularly Eddie Howe.

While it could yet result in Newcastle qualifying for the Europa League, it has not been a case of plain sailing for the club.

This has raised manager speculation, and ultimately questions about his future. What’s the latest?

Newcastle loanee impresses

Newcastle have a number of loanees out for the 23/24 season – including Yankuba Minteh.

The Gambian winger is thrilling on loan with Feyenoord this season and bagged a brace in their famous 6-0 drubbing of bitter rivals Ajax on Sunday.

One of his teammates shares how good he is.

Yankuba Minteh plan for the Toon

So after, yet another, impressive performance. What is the plan for Minteh?

Howe could certainly do with the dynamism of the Gambian, who could form a prolific front three with Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon.

Will he be a first-team squad member around the Newcastle United Training Centre for the 24/25 campaign?
