How to rebuild Newcastle United

Season 8, Episode 13,   Nov 04, 2021, 08:46 PM

The latest episode of the Squawka Talker podcast looks at how to rebuild Newcastle United in 2022.

Host Feargal Brennan is joined by Squawka's Chief Football Writer Muhammad Butt and Newcastle United fan and BBC Sport journalist Harry De Cosemo to asses the current picture at St. James' Park following their Saudi Arabia-backed buyout.

The team analyse what the Magpies transfer policy will be in the coming months with growing pressure on the club to spend big in January to force their way out of the Premier League relegation battle.

Will they look to bring in Premier League stalwarts like James Tarkowski and John McGinn or will they roll the dice on 'European mercenaries' such as Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona and Gareth Bale at Real Madrid?

Or will the new regime on Tyneside invest in young British talent on the continent with Tammy Abraham, Fikayo Tomori and Jude Bellingham all stamping their mark on the game?
