Eddie Howe says Newcastle are working with TWO midfielders less than he needs and wants to sign reinforcements.
The Magpies operated with a stable of six last season but have sold Sean Longstaff to Leeds and have lost Joe Willock for up to six weeks with a foot injury. That leaves Bruno Guimaraes, Joelinton, Sandro Tonali and Lewis Miley.
But given Newcastle play with three in midfield, a new signing in that area is fast becoming a matter of urgency.
‘We had six and we want six,’ Howe told Mail Sport.
