Newcastle summer window plan revealed: may spend 140 million yuan to sign three people in a row

Latest Newcastle United transfer news and opinions, including updates about Harvey Simmons, Antonio Noosa, Joao Pedro, Anthony Ellanga and James Trafford.

So far, Newcastle United's transfer operation can only be described as "frustrating". Because coach Eddie Howe has not yet prepared for his 2025/26 season lineup, he has welcomed any new player.

After winning the League Cup and successfully entering the Champions League, the "Magpie" is preparing for an extremely important season. If we can have another positive season, the club will be greatly strengthened to consolidate its position among the European elite and win more honors.

However, despite being associated with several potential targets, Newcastle has not yet made any actual signing moves. However, time is still on their side, and the team still has a lot of work to do. The Chronicle learned that they are currently in in-depth negotiations for signing Joao Pedro, and the outside world is generally optimistic that the deal can be finalized before the start of the preseason.

With this in mind, we are here to list a few of the latest transfer rumors for you, with our views attached.

"Raising" RB Leipzig

After the failure of his first offer to Anthony Ellanda and increasingly frustrated in his pursuit of João Pedro, Newcastle is reportedly turning his attention to the duo of Bundesliga powerhouse RB Leipzig - Xavi Simmons and Antonio Noosa.

According to GIVEMESPORT, "Magpie" is very interested in these two players. Simmons himself has suggested that he is open to transfer to the Premier League. It is reported that a £60 million offer will be enough to sign the Dutch international.

Noosa also aroused the interest of coach Hao, whose value is expected to be around £40 million. The 20-year-old winger moved to Leipzig after becoming famous at the Bruges Club in Bruges.

The Chronicle commented: "Harvey Simmons is an extremely outstanding player, and his resume has been very glamorous in the past three seasons. He has a long connection with England, and this summer it seems that it is finally time for him to enter the Premier League."

"If Newcastle can beat Arsenal and Manchester United in this battle, it would be a major success. Noosa is another smart signing. He may not be in the starting lineup immediately, but he can bring huge competitive pressure to Anthony Gordon and Harvey Barnes."

Triple Signing Plan

However, Newcastle did not show signs of giving up Elanga. It is reported that they are preparing to launch a sensational "triple signing" worth up to £140 million. The Sun said that the club is ready to make every effort to sign the former Manchester United striker, Pedro and goalkeeper James Trafford in one fell swoop.

It is reported that a new offer for Ellanda worth £50 million is in preparation, which is £5 million higher than their previous offer. In addition, £60 million is used to introduce Pedro and £30 million is used to introduce Trafford, which are all part of this transfer plan. Newcastle hopes to close the deals after June 30 to account for spending in the new fiscal year, the report added.

Any expenses before June 30 will be included in the accounts of that year. In early July, the team will also receive dividends from the Champions League, and the Sun said that the "Magpie" will earn about 100 million pounds.

The Chronicle commented: "As the clubs are working hard to comply with the 'profit and sustainable development rules', it is expected that the entire Premier League will usher in a transfer boom in early July."

"After a period of silent signings, if Newcastle can sign three new players in a row next month, it will be an excellent operation. The question now is whether Nottingham Forest, Brighton and Burnley will approve these deals."
