Newcastle transfer rumours: Summer transfer window 2022 | Transfer Centre News

Wrapping up the Newcastle transfer news, rumours and gossip in the 2022 summer window.

Eddie Howe does not want to waste any time in planning for a busy summer ahead for Newcastle.

The Magpies finished the campaign with a 2-1 win at Burnley to lift them to a 11th in the Premier League table with 49 points. Thirty-eight of those came since the turn of the year, aided by the arrivals of Kieran Trippier, Bruno Guimaraes, Dan Burn and Chris Wood in January, and fans are looking forward to further investment this summer given the ambitions of their Saudi Arabian-backed ownership group.

“I was joking to someone that the planning would start on the coach on the way back,” Howe said. “Then I had a rethink, it can wait until Monday, but really it starts straight away.

“You have to. The Premier League moves so quickly, the competition is so strong, you have to try and be ahead of the game. We have to try and be sensible about what we do this summer. We know it’s a big time for the club.”

Dan Ashworth could arrive as Newcastle’s sporting director in time for the summer transfer window after negotiations with Brighton reopened (Daily Mail, May 27).
