Social media platforms have been awash with nervous fans after the transfer sagas of Sven Botman and Hugo Ekitike continue to play out in the public domain.
But one thing is for sure, whatever happens with particular deals, the Magpies will end the summer stronger than they started it.
Eddie Howe has already moved to recruit Matt Targett on a permanent basis after exercising a £15million clause in his loan agreement from Aston Villa.
A number of players, of course, have been linked as United fans eagerly await news on who will be joining their football club.
NewcastleWorld, bearing in mind the latest rumours, takes a look at the players that could join Newcastle this summer - and those that probably won’t.

9. Christian Eriksen - could join
NewcastleWorld understands contact lines between United and Eriksen’s representatives very much remain open. Manchester United and Brentford are also interested as the Denmark star nears a decision on his next club.
10. Lucas Paqueta - unlikely to join
A transfer Newcastle fans are all willing to happen due to his friendship with Bruno Guimaraes. But his price tag, for a position that isn’t a priority at present, makes a deal unlikely - at this stage.
11. Thorgan Hazard - could join
A story from the German media linked Newcastle with a move for Hazard. He’d certainly be one of the cheaper options given the hefty amount United have been quoted for other wide forwards.
12. Jack Harrison - unlikely to join
A transfer that largely depended on Leeds being relegated, which, of course, didn’t happen, after the help of Newcastle on the final day of the season. With Raphinha on his way out, you’d presume Leeds will hold on to Harrison.
