The Magpies have struggled to make a ‘major’ breakthrough so far this summer, with Lloyd Kelly - a free transfer from AFC Bournemouth - the only new signing to feature in the opening three fixtures. Lewis Hall technically counts after his loan from Chelsea was turned permanent but isn’t a new face as such.
Will Osula arrived from Sheffield United for £15million alongside goalkeepers Odysseas Vlachodimos and John Ruddy, however the trio are yet to make their competitive debuts.
In terms of outgoings, Newcastle sold Elliot Anderson and Yankuba Minteh to Nottingham Forest and Brighton & Hove Albion, respectively, to comply with Premier League Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR) and avoid an inevitable points deduction.
United now have less than 24 hours to conduct any final business, whether be incomings or outgoings. Here, NewcastleWorld takes a look at the deals that could happen before tonight’s 11pm deadline.
