The English team has been the biggest spender in January, with a total of five signings, although one of them was on loan. The club spent more than 100 million euros.

Who did Newcastle sign?

The first to arrive was Kieran Trippier, from Atletico Madrid.  The player returns to the Premier League after playing for Tottenham before leaving for the Spanish club. The Magpies paid 15 million for his transfer.

Then came Chris Wood from Burnley, a striker to strengthen the attack and for whom €30 million was paid to cover his release clause. Wood has signed a two-and-a-half season contract and will be eligible to make his debut in Saturday's Premier League clash with Watford at St. James' Park. 

Newcastle's biggest investment was Bruno Guimaraes, a player who was wanted by other European clubs. Between the transfer fee and variables, the English side spent 42 million for the Olympique Lyon midfielder.

Finally, in the last hours of the market, St. James' Park closed the loan of Matt Target, from Aston Villa, and the signing of Dan Burn from Brighton for about 15 million, the central defender is committed for two and a half seasons, that is, until June 2024. 

Will this outlay help the Magpies to maintain their Premier League place?
