Every player linked with Newcastle United in the summer transfer window and the latest rumours on each reported Eddie Howe target.

Newcastle United are set for a big summer transfer window as they prepare for their likely return to Champions League football.

Eddie Howe was unable to strengthen his squad much last year due to PSR restrictions, with the club having to sell Elliot Anderson and Yankuba Minteh to remain on the right side of the rules.

But it’s shaping up to be an exciting summer this time around as Newcastle have much more room to spend.

A host of big and intriguing names have already been linked with a move to St. James’ Park and here is every one.

Who have Newcastle United been linked with in the summer transfer window?

Here is every player who has been linked with a transfer to Newcastle United in the summer transfer window so far.

The list will continue to be updated throughout the summer, with the transfer window open between June 1-10 and then from June 16 to September 1.

What positions do Newcastle need to strengthen in the summer transfer window?

The position Howe seems most set on upgrading this summer is goalkeeper, with Burnley’s James Trafford emerging as the top target after conceding just 16 goals last season.

Nick Pope has done well since returning from injury but it appears the manager wants to improve his goalkeeper with one a bit more confident with the ball at his feet.

Though Newcastle have a fantastic starting XI, they don’t have a lot of strength in depth in key positions, something that needs to be addressed.

The Magpies are particularly light in attacking positions and are being linked with several strikers and forwards to remedy that situation. A new centre-back also appears high on the agenda.
