Newcastle United’s first game of the new 2024/25 season is a home clash against newly promoted Southampton on 17th August. Eddie Howe’s side are currently in the middle of the run of pre-season friendlies.
They face Yokohama FM in their next clash this weekend. In the meantime, here is a look at some of the latest news and rumours coming out of the club..
Newcastle’s league rivals West Ham are ‘closing’ in on a deal for Leeds United winger Crysencio Summerville, as per a report by Sky Sports. The winger has been linked with a few club this summer including Liverpool, Chelsea and the Toon Army. However, in this latest update, it appears he is heading for the London Stadium along with Borussia Dortmund’s Nicholas Fullkrug and potentially Manchester United’s Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
The 22-year-old, who is from Holland, caught the eye with the Whites last term in the Championship and scored 23 goals in all competitions. He helped them reach the play-off final but they missed out on promotion to the top flight after losing to Southampton in the final at Wembley, with former Newcastle man Adam Armstrong scoring the winner.
