Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has clarified that the club has no intentions of signing Dominic Solanke, despite his admiration for the player he previously signed and rates very highly. Howe emphasized that Newcastle has not made an enquiry and lacks the financial means to sign such high-level players. In discussing the January transfer window, Howe pointed out the potential of the loan market but expressed skepticism about its benefits for Newcastle due to a lack of cooperation from other clubs and the limitations imposed by financial fair play rules. The club's ability to strengthen the squad is further hindered by a lengthy injury list and a shortage of allies within the market. Amid these transfer challenges, Newcastle United prepares to play against Manchester City in Premier League action, with the game receiving live coverage from several sports media.
