As this season draws to a close clubs will be making decisions regarding contracts based on the seasons performance. Newcastle has a handful of players who have only a couple of months left on their current deals and with relegation looking more and more likely by the week the wage bill will certainly need to be cut at Newcastle if the club were to be playing their football in the Championship next season.
A few players have been injured for the majority of this season or out on loan, some of which may be useful if the worst was to happen in the next month or so. The decision to sign Seydou Doumbia has baffled some fans, and the option to sign him permanently for a fee at the end of the season seems very unlikely at this point.
The slideshow will go through the Newcastle players out of contract and if they are worthy of a fresh start in the summer.
