Newcastle United's potential £300 million takeover by a Saudi Arabia-backed consortium has not even been completed, yet big-name transfer rumours are already landing on Tyneside.

Antoine Griezmann, Edinson Cavani, Philippe Coutinho and Timo Werner are among the elite talent suddenly tipped to arrive, while Mauricio Pochettino and Massimiliano Allegri are both linked to become the side's next manager.

It's undoubtedly an exciting time for supporters, but now they need to separate fantasy from reality, because the superstars and glory days will not arrive overnight.
