Summer signings at Newcastle - Who could arrive next after chaotic end to PSR deadline?

Today marks a new financial year, which means new commercial deals kick in, as does the Champions League money earned from our fourth-placed finish in 2022/23 and the European campaign that followed.

After a chaotic weekend of outgoings, which areas will we target and who could now sign after Sunday's PSR deadline saw us raise £68m from Yankuba Minteh and Elliot Anderson?

Before we get to the three key positions - CB, RW, ST - it's worth noting that we've signed TWO goalkeepers today. Odysseas Vlachodimos has arrived from Nottingham Forest following his medical on Sunday and could replace Martin Dubravka as back-up to Nick Pope if we don't revisit deals for James Trafford Giorgi Mamardashvili. John Ruddy has also signed on a free, with the 37-year-old set to replace Loris Karius as our third-choice option who'll rarely play but add experience and another option for training sessions.

Now for the big moves, we start at right-sided centre-back; a position that's yet to be filled after free agent Tosin Adarabioyo snubbed St James' Park for St James' Park last month. There's a feeling we'll now fast-track plans to sign a quality young option who can push Fabian Schar before becoming Sven Botman's long-term partner. Based on that, it makes total sense that Newcastle have reignited their interest in Malick Thiaw; the 22-year-old German who AC Milan might just sell for £30-35m. Other names continually linked include Sporting Lisbon's Ousmane Diomande, while a player-plus-cash bid was made for Wolves' Max Kilman the weekend before last.

Up next comes the big one - a new right winger. We need an upgrade on Miguel Almiron and are under pressure to get this signing right after reluctantly cashing in on Yankuba Minteh. Michael Olise is off the list now he's heading to Bayern, but there's plenty of quality options out there. My pick would be Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo, but we've also seen links to Pero Neto of Wolves, West Ham's Jarrod Bowen and Chelsea's Noni Madueke. Spain's Nico Williams would be an electric signing, but it feels like he'll be out of our reach after announcing himself to the world at Euro 2024.

With Callum Wilson out of contract next summer and likely to depart, another striker is also needed, but it won't be easy to sign a goalscorer happy to (often) play second-fiddle to Alexander Isak. We held talks with Dominic Calvert-Lewin in the final week of June but failed to agree terms and seemed rightfully reluctant to go nowhere near Everton's £35-40m asking price. I'd personally like to see us look at Tammy Abraham; the lanky Roma forward available on the cheap who is eyeing a return to the Premier League https://parimatch-aviator.in/.

Other areas of the squad could require strengthening, too. We're sorted at left-back - Lewis Hall's £28m move is now complete, Lloyd Kelly has signed and we also have Dan Burn - but another right-back will be needed if Kieran Trippier is sold. Swedish defender Emil Krafth is also out of contract next summer. We're generally stacked in midfield when everyone is fit, but Elliot Anderson's shock move to Nottingham Forest could change things.

Who knows, but we'll hopefully see a July and August full of big moves and ambitious signings after a messy end to June.
