Newcastle are said to be closing in on a deal to sign Allan Saint-Maximin from Nice, so are things finally starting to turn a corner for the club after a difficult summer?
According to the Sheilds Gazzette, a deal could be completed within 48 hours after club representatives from Newcastle flew out to finalise the move.
The deal follows the arrival of Brazilian forward Joelinton, who completed a big-money move from Hoffenheim earlier in the week.
It has been a tricky time for Newcastle supporters of late, but these two pieces of news will come as a major boost to the club ahead of the start of the new season.
Saint-Maximin is an exciting prospect for Newcastle fans, an out-and-out attacking winger that supporters have craved for some time.
That, coupled with the additions of Joelinton and a full season of Premier League football for Miguel Almiron, mean that Newcastle’s frontline could be a very interesting one next season.
Losing Rafa Benitez to the Chinese Super League was a bitter pill to swallow for Newcastle fans, but the latest two additions to the squad certainly provide some hope about the months ahead.
