The inside track on the football stories that matter
, senior correspondent Pete O’Rourke revealed that the Magpies will face difficulties should they make a move after having left it so late in the window.Sources say any move to sign a new right-winger before the 11pm deadline will hinge on whether Miguel Almiron can be moved on first.
Signing a winger had been a priority for Newcastle this summer, but they must get Almiron off the books before they can explore a deal.Elanga made the move to the City Ground from Manchester United in July 2023 and has established himself as a key player under Nuno Espirito Santo. His five goals and nine assists in 39 appearances across all competitions last season landed him on Eddie Howe’s radar ahead of the summer window.
After right-winger Yankuba Minteh was sold to Brighton to help the club avoid potential PSR issues, the Magpies were left short of quality options on the right-hand side.
