Borna Sosa is being linked and we have scouted him a few times over the past year apparently. It's suggested he'd cost around £20million. Barnes for £30m, Sosa for £20m. Leaves us £25m or so for CM. That's the price we've been looking at Alcaraz for... Though if we did sign Barnes, then I'd expect Saint maximin to go, meaning we have around £50m to spend, at which point we could try for Szoboszlai or Maddison.

For the record, Borna Sosa would be a top signing.
 
Not a chance Craig Dope knows anything about the budget and if anyone is telling him anything it's media manipulation to try and grind down prices. If we only have £75m why are we looking at Maddison/Sabilozar for £50-60m when we need 5 players to pad the squad?

The only way that figure is right if that is the TOP price we will pay for one player. Then another £125m on the other 4 needed...

Past that we spent £60m on Isak last year with Fun88 paying peanuts and a bottom half finish - are we to believe now we have a new sponsor on 4 times the money and CL football that our budget is down on what we spent last year? **** right off.
 
Last season they said £60m budget and everybody knows how it ended...

I also see in twatter, people sprouting about Saudi priority is their league atm, so they're reluctant to spend a lot on Newcastle.
