Newcastle United’s uncertain summer after boardroom changes and transfer concerns

By Total Football News

At the beginning of July, Newcastle announced the appointment of Paul Mitchell as their sporting director, replacing the Manchester United-bound Dan Ashworth. It was a real coup to lure a man who had an incredibly strong reputation after working with the likes of Tottenham, RB Leipzig and Monaco.

“You are sort of cocooned in England. You understand there is a wider support base, but if you are not exposed it then it’s difficult to understand it.”

Howe acknowledged that he will have

Given that Newcastle have suffered more than most with injuries this term, a top-seven finish – and a possible place in Europe for the second season in succession – should be deemed a satisfactory campaign for Howe’s side.

Newcastle’s away form has left a lot to be desired, and when Toney slotted in Bryan Mbeumo’s cross in just the third minute it looked like being another frustrating afternoon away from
