Newcastle have no money to buy Ruo Bird / Caicedo / Tillermans, Winter window wants to copy the bottom of Little Thuram / loan

On December 29th, the famous Newcastle reporter Luke Edwards of the Daily Telegraph revealed the team’s winter window plan.
These include the search for a midfield organizer who are interested in Moises Caicedo of Brighton and Yuri Tillermans of Leicester City. The Telegraph learned that coach Eddie Howe asked for first-team players, preferably with Premiership experience. As Shelvey has been injured for a long time, the negotiations in the winter window are even more urgent.
It has been reported that Newcastle have no interest in Chelsea’s Italian international Jorinho because he does not have the flexibility to play in their midfield system and his salary is too high.
In addition, the Caicedo deal has been seen as a slim opportunity and Brighton is reluctant to sell him to the Magpies because they poached football director Dan Ashworth for well over £60 million.
Tillermans has only six months left on his contract with Leicester City and has been on the Magpies’ shortlist for the last two windows. But it remains to be seen whether they can strike a deal, as the player has many admirers across Europe and is demanding a salary of more than £150000 a week.
Newcastle are still keen on Leicester City’s James Madison, but it is said that he will not move until next summer at the earliest.
Steve Nixon, Newcastle’s chief scout, has drawn up a long list of midfield targets, but the board still has reservations about spending a lot of money in the winter window. The source revealed that Howe knows that the board has broader financial issues to consider and that the club’s current salary budget is more in line with the level of the midstream team than a challenge to the qualification of the Champions League.
The Telegraph was also told that any spending in January would be deducted from the summer budget.
Since the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund (Public Investment Fund) bought the company, the team’s net expenditure has exceeded £200m, so they are not going to make a big fight in the winter window.
With winger Fraser attracting interest from Southampton and Brentford, Newcastle hope his departure will give them the flexibility to bring in at least one player directly. Jamal Lewis, Paul Damit and Matt Ritchie can also leave on loan to further reduce wages.
Newcastle are still looking for a young right-back to replace captain Kieran Tripil and are also hoping to bring in a winger, but sources insist they are having problems under the rules of fair financial competition.
The Telegraph has learned that Newcastle are focused on winter window leases, subsequent window payment transactions, or forced buyouts in summer windows, which are at the core of their focus.
Menchen France international Marcus Thuram is a long-term target as his contract enters its final six months, which will allow Newcastle to test the German club’s determination to retain the 25-year-old who will leave for free in June.
The main problem for chief executives Darren Iles and Ashworth is the club’s rising salary bill. In addition to the increased cost of signing players such as England international Tripier and Brazil international Bruno Guimaraes, the Magpies have not been able to cut wage costs by selling players.
Even players who are out on loan, such as Jeff Hendrik and Siaran Clark, have to pay a large portion of their wages, with a total cost of more than £100000 a week.
