Newcastle now ready to sell player who joined just six months ago

Posted by

Newcastle could sell Matt Targett despite only joining the club this year.

The former Aston Villa man was brought in before Newcastle signed Dan Burn, and the latter has become Eddie Howe’s first choice left-back.

Speaking to Football Insider, pundit Noel Whelan has suggested we could see Newcastle bring in a top-quality left-back in January, which could spell the end of Targett’s short tenure.

“Yeah, for sure. That’s one area of the pitch they’ll look at and want to make a bit stronger. They’ve got [Kieran] Trippier on the other side, who is a top-quality, international player. Dan Burn isn’t a natural option at left-back. Matt Targett has been consistent, but he hasn’t set the world alight,” said Whelan.

  1. Newcastle are now in a position to upgrade any player if a better one becomes available, Matty Target is no exception, however one thing we do here is loyalty to the players, as long as the team is doing well then no need to change until that is no longer the case, tht’s the reason Matty hasn’t been starting atm.
