Even though the Premier League returns this weekend, it’s hard to overlook the January transfer market.
Naturally, Newcastle United’s level of activity throughout the transfer window will probably depend on the real football the team plays up until that time. However, outside variables might also be involved.

In light of this, a lot of midfielders have been linked to Newcastle, and Kalvin Phillips of Manchester City is frequently mentioned as a target.Plans to sign him appear to have expedited now.
This is due to TEAMtalk’s suggestion that Dan Ashworth, the sporting director for Newcastle, is already quite busy.
They assert that Ashworth is spearheading the drive to get immediate reinforcement and that the team is actively looking for cover for Tonali.
According to their sources, City is willing to part with his £150,000 weekly salary, and if both parties can work things out, a transaction should be very easy to complete.
Given the nearly omnipotent presence of Rodri, perhaps the greatest player in the world at his position, Phillips has already shown himself in the Premier League, so it is not a huge tragedy if he does not make an impact for City.
Kieran Trippier, an England teammate, called the £42 million midfielder “phenomenal.” He hasn’t dropped to the bottom of the league right away.
