Newcastle needs to bring in some quality players ahead of the start of the new season, this season the competition in the EPL is very competitive, the clubs that failed to finish in the top four last season have made big changes in order to maintain competition in the top positions while competing to finish in first place. Newcastle will also play in the Champions League this season, a stronger team is needed to survive in the competition.
Other teams are in the process of forming new forces, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United have already spent large sums of money fighting for the best positions. Newcastle must immediately bring in great players to survive at the top of the standings while at the same time making a surprise in the Champions League.
Newcastle are not in a rush to build their squad as fast as Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United so far. Nonetheless, Newcastle have signed two important players that they have prioritized. Newcastle have spent 110 million euros on these two players (Sandro Tonali and Harvey Barnes), but I'm sure they will bring in more players as the team develops.
Newcastle's transfer approach has been excellent even though they are known to have a big budget from their new owners. It seems that Newcastle really want their existing players to continue to improve their quality rather than buying more high-value star players, but it certainly doesn't matter as long as the quality and performance of the team is consistent enough like last season.
The owner of Newcastle United is Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. And now Newcastle are the richest club in the Premier League. At the same time, the Public Investment Fund is also ready to spend a lot of money. But the Newcastle management is very experienced. They want to stabilize the team slowly. And I'd say the Newcastle management wouldn't be wrong to trust coach Eddie Howe.
Newcastle management did not spend much money. And they didn't include any star players in the squad. They added Sandro Tonali and Harvey Barnes to the squad. And both of them are midfielders and young players. I guess coach Eddie Howe has different plans. He wants to build the team fit to win the Champions League title in the next few years. And so he is investing money in young players.
