Since its acquisition by the Saudi Arabia Investment Fund, the English club has big ambitions and should ignite the next mercatos.
This was confirmed by the new director of Magpies, Amanda Staveley, who gave an interview on the club’s website.
“We’re getting ready for the January transfer window. It’s not a transfer window that we would like to invest in normally, as you don’t always get the right deals, but it’s something that’s important right now. “
She also spoke about the club’s buyout last October which made Newcastle the richest football club on the planet
“It would have been an easy decision for us not to buy the club, to wait until Christmas and the January transfer window to see where the club was in the standings and then buy it. It would have been a gamble, but we didn’t. We decided to invest now. We had to take that risk. “
After the appointment of former Bournemouth coach Eddie Howe, many names have already circulated, such as Gareth Bale, Ousmane Dembélé or more recently Darwin Nunez, for whom the Magpies would have offered 50 million euros, according to Foot Market.
