Paul Mitchell is looking to switch things up at Newcastle United given the current PSR situation.
Newcastle United head into the January transfer window not knowing how much business they can really conduct, as PSR continues to cause headaches.
Paul Mitchell has had a rocky time of things since taking the reign at Newcastle United, and this January will prove to be the real test.

It’s already been claimed that most clubs in Saudi are waiting for Miguel Almiron to give the green light on an exit, so it won’t be hard to complete.
