Alexander Isak signs new contract & Nottingham Forest agree £55m deal – Newcastle United dream 2025/26 XI
Newcastle United are looking to freshen up and improve their squad this summer in preparation for Champions League football.
Newcastle are yet to complete a major first team signing so far this summer but work is ongoing behind the scenes and a breakthrough is thought to be close.
Eddie Howe has stressed that the club are in a healthy PSR position after limited spending in recent transfer windows. It’s been two years since Newcastle’s last significant first-team-ready signing.
Last summer, Newcastle signed John Ruddy, William Osula, Lloyd Kelly and Odysseas Vlachodimos. Ruddy didn’t get on the pitch for Newcastle last season while Vlachodimos was limited to just 45 minutes.
Osula was used off the bench but didn’t start a Premier League match while Kelly, who was arguably Newcastle’s marquee signing of the window, started for Premier League matches before leaving to join Juventus in January.
Here, we take a look at all the latest Newcastle United transfer rumours and see what an ideal situation would look like for Howe’s side when the 2025 summer transfer window closes.

GK – James Trafford
Newcastle are in talks with Burnley over a potential deal for James Trafford. A £27million bid has been turned down but negotiations are ongoing and agreement is understood to be close.
Trafford is keen on joining Newcastle and has agreed personal terms, it’s just a case of Newcastle striking a deal with Burnley over a fee.
RB – Tino Livramento
Tino Livramento impressed at both right-back and left-back for Newcastle last season before enjoying a successful Under-21s European Championship with England. He has been linked with a move to Manchester City but The Magpies are keen to keep hold of him and value him very highly.
