The ticket to the Champions League next season does not guarantee the positive transfer situation of Newcastle United.
When the transfer window is more than 3 weeks, it is closed, and only brings 2 deals including Anthony Elanga (55 million pounds) and goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale (borrowed). It is not enough when next season, they will fight the Champions League and continue competing in the top of the Premier League.
Newcastle has pursued a series of youthful and potential attacks, typically Benjamin Sesko (RB Leipzig), Liam Delap (Ipswich), Hugo Ekitike (Frankfurt) or Joao Pedro (Brighton). However, all the recruitment efforts of this team only earned cold “Seen”.

They competed in Benjamin Sesko with Man United and despite making a higher proposal, better remuneration, Sesko still turned to the Old Trafford team. The deal is cold water for the ambition of Chich Chu, in the context of the main striker Alexander Isak demanding to leave. Meanwhile Delap, Pedro switched to Chelsea, Ekitike chose Liverpool.
The couple Mohamed Kudus (West Ham) and Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford) are two stars rich in speed, techniques and Premier League experience, previously also rejected Newcastle's offer to select Tottenham and Man United.
In the defense, Newcastle targets young talent Dean Huijsen (Bournemouth) but cannot compete with Real Madrid. The deal of the Marc Guehi (Crystal Palace) goes to a dead end. James Trafford, the goal of spending a lot of effort of Newcastle recently chose to return to Man City.

The continuous loss of transfer goals may be a warning to Newcastle's ambition, when they have no shortage of money and also return to the Champions League arena next season. In the context of competitors like Chelsea, Tottenham or Man United all have a breakthrough on Techmart, Newcastle's move brings great disappointment.
The transfer window is 3 weeks, but the most important thing for NHM to sting at this time is whether they can retain Isak or not.
