# Players Newcastle should target this summer

With Newcastle securing their promotion to the Premier League on Monday night, we can begin to think about next season.

Newcastle will be competing to retain their place in the top-flight next season and will need to improve their squad in order to do so.

Rafa Benitez is going to need to get the right players in to give them the best chance of survival and avoid relegation.

If you look at the likes of Burnley and Hull this season, they recruited well and both look set to steer clear of demotion to the Championship.

Bournemouth and Watford did the same the year before, and Newcastle need to follow suit.

It is not always about how much you spend, but who you spend it on. Newcastle need to be shrewd in the market this summer.

So, here are some players Newcastle should target if they want to have a successful Premier League season.
