Realistic signings for Newcastle – As top European stars best in five key positions

I recently posted on our NUFCBlog Twitter account, inviting fans to share their suggestions for realistic signings they’d like to see at Newcastle United this upcoming summer. Although it’s still early days, with several months remaining in the 2023/24 season and the need to appoint a new sporting director following Dan Ashworth’s departure, it’s evident that this summer will be significant for the club.
