Rubbish Newcastle transfer news: 93 targets – 56 days to go
Welcome to our daily rubbish Newcastle transfer news service, featuring all the players NUFC are ‘buying’ (including proposed loan deals) this summer.
We will update each day and try to keep you abreast of all these exciting transfers that aren’t going to happen (as well as the handful that hopefully will…).
Only one new name today, brings the running total up to 93 targets with 56 days of the transfer window remaining (3 days until the first friendly and 33 days until the Premier League starts against Southampton).
The new player to add is Ergys Kace, an Albanian international midfielder who plays for Greek club PAOK.
Turning 22 tomorrow (Wednesday), Kace played 30 league matches for his club last season and scored four goals, The Sun are the ones claiming that the midfielder is a target for Newcastle.
Less than four weeks ago saw the highlight of the player’s international career so far, scoring the winner as Albania beat France 1-0.
To try and keep some kind of order, the players are listed in alphabetical order by surname, then first/other names, the club they are/were at when Newcastle were linked with them, then finally the club they have ended up signing for (if any).
Please let us know of any that we have missed out as we go along and especially if you notice if any on the list actually sign for a club and we haven’t added that information.
