10 Players That Newcastle United Could Sign In January
3. Jesse Lingard
Lingard already has several years of Premier League experience, proving that he is an incredibly creative player that has an eye for a goal.
It’s no secret just how well Lingard thrived during his loan spell at West Ham last season, scoring nine goals and providing four assists in just 16 appearances.
In this campaign, Lingard has spent most of the time on the substitutes bench. Whether he remains in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s plans for the long-term will remain to be seen.
2. Dean Henderson
Henderson is one of the most likely players to move to Newcastle in January. With De Gea with brilliant form this season, Henderson has spent most of his time on the bench.
Signing a goalkeeper is not a priority but a player of Henderson’s ability can’t be overlooked. Toon fans wouldn’t be complaining if he was to come through the door alongside a few outfield players.
1. James Tarkowski
Newcastle United have been linked with several defenders. They have leaked a lot of goals this season and it is clear to see that the Newcastle squad is in desperate need of a reliable central defender.
James Tarkowski has been touted as one of the most talented centre-backs in the league for several years. After playing in a defensively strong Burnley team for so long, he is an obvious option for the Magpies.
Tarkowski has opted not to sign a new contract with Burnley just yet, which has sparked conversations about his future, and with a market value of £22m, he would not break the bank either.
