Tarkovski

A quality premier league player with bags of experience who will improve the squad no end. Reports doing the rounds that James has already agreed terms. Great addition to replace the likes of Clarke, Fernandez (possibly Lacelles). Obviously not the worldie calibre player who will also be signed but the kind of quality we need to transition from where we are to a top 6 side.

Ekiteke

The deal was on completed in Jan but he has to be in Newcastle in 24hr. It was a huge ask for a young man who is still developing. He's still a kid but he showed great maturity not to risk his progression and development.

However it's a done deal and he will be announced on the opening day of the Window.

Botman

Sven is the only none NUFC player Mehrdad follows. We agreed personal terms with the player in Jan but Lille didn't want to do the deal mid-season. However the French club's finances haven't improved. Lille are in 10th in Ligue 1 with no hope of European football next season.


All things said and done. I'm very relaxed about the summer for the first time in 20 yrs. Even the last days of Sir John Hall our recruitment poor, we weren't attracting exciting, top players who will develop.

This summer Eddie Howe & the board will bring in a blend of Prem experienced players with exciting young world class potential.

It's like Christmas everyday!
