This summer is a big one for Newcastle United; arguably even bigger than last year. Here are five players Newcastle will look to sell this summer.
This summer is a big one for Newcastle United ; arguably even bigger than last year. Having failed to back up their Champions League campaign with European qualification this season despite finishing seventh – by virtue of Manchester United’s FA Cup victory – they must act smartly if they are to regain the upward trajectory they felt after the Saudi Arabian-backed takeover in 2021.
There is no doubting Wilson’s ability to contribute for Newcastle, but at 32, with a year left on his St James’ Park contract, this is the sort of decision they will have to make. January’s interest from Atletico Madrid is proof there is still value in him, and plenty of Premier League clubs may look at his statistics and think he is worth the injury gamble. Eddie Howe “loves” the player, and were PSR not a factor, he’d likely be offered a new deal, but needs must.
There aren’t many players with a better attitude than Almiron, and crucially, in terms of market value, he may represent the most sellable asset; recouping the £21m paid to Atlanta United will be Newcastle’s aim. Almiron rejected a move to Saudi club Al-Shabab in January, but is open to offers with interest from Spain and, reportedly, elsewhere in England.
Back in the Championship-winning season of 2016/17, Ritchie was the most influential player at Newcastle, but eight years on, the club has moved on. Now 34, Ritchie is a peripheral member of the squad, scoring a late equaliser against former club Bournemouth in February in one of just 13 league appearances.
