Image for Newcastle United: Fans buzz over Luke Edwards transfer claim

A whole host of Newcastle United fans have flocked to Luke Edwards’ latest tweet about their planned transfer activity.

It appeared to have been a solid start to the transfer window for Eddie Howe and Newcastle, as they brought in Kieran Trippier and Chris Wood within the first two weeks of the month, however, those signings failed to immediately turn around their fortunes in the league as they fell to a late equaliser at home on Saturday.

Will Newcastle sign a defender this week?

Yes!

Yes!

No!

No!

The Magpies have seen bids knocked back for Diego Carlos and Sven Botman, while Donny van de Beek has also reportedly rejected a move to Tyneside, however, it’s not all doom and gloom, with The Telegraph’s Luke Edwards claiming that two deals are close to being completed this week.

A lot of Newcastle fans are excited on Twitter about this transfer claim.

What have these Newcastle fans been saying?

“Looks like things are positive for Gosens and Carlos.”

@Jack_Rogers97

“Will go left field and guess the other transfer is Eriksen. If he’s fit to play it would be huge.”

@MattW36565526

“Fingers crossed. I sense this is similar to the pre-takeover confidence.”

@dan2882

“Please let it be 2x new CB’s!”

@PratMobile

“Defenders priority l! Who is being tipped for captain?”

@GreenGeordie9

“Erickson & Carlos by any chance? Would be great additions to the team before Leeds if possible. Hopefully drop lascelles”

@nufcmillar92

While the two signings Newcastle have already made appear to be smart ones on paper, it’s obvious that they still need more reinforcements, especially in defence, with Carlos and Robin Gosens two that have been heavily linked in recent times, and are clearly liked by these Magpies fans.

A nice and easy one to start off with, how much is Callum Wilson worth?
