According to The Chronicles, Newcastle United have told head coach Steve Bruce that money is available for the right type of players as far as age and potential future sell-on value is concerned.
And it doesn’t come as a surprise given that Rafa Benitez was told exactly the same thing.
The Spaniard particularly wanted Newcastle chairman and owner Mike Ashley to make the loan move of former West Bromwich Albion striker Salomon Rondon a permanent one last term, but that didn’t happen as the club weren’t keen on buying a 29-year-old.
