Newcastle United were linked with a whole host of players last summer, but what are those players up to now?
The Magpies have found themselves included in more transfer stories than ever before since their takeover and the new-found wealth that came with it. In reality, Newcastle were indeed busy, both in the summer and in the winter, but they did not sign many of the players they were linked with for one reason or another.
With that in mind, we have rounded up nine of the players Newcastle were linked with but didn’t sign, and we have also taken a look at where those players are now.
Take a look below...
1. James Maddison
Maddison was heavily linked in the summer, and he could be a player Newcastle circle back for. He is currently battling relegation with Leicester.
2. Adrien Rabiot
It has been a long season for Juventus, but Rabiot has played a key role. He is out of contract this summer and is likely to attract plenty of interest.
3. Mykhaylo Mudryk
Mudryk wound up leaving Shakhtar Donetsk for Chelsea in a deal worth much more than Newcastle were every going to pay.
4. Memphis Depay
Memphis ended up joining Atletico Madrid from Barcelona, remaining in La Liga. The Dutchman has scored four times in nine league appearances this season.
