Newcastle looking to strengthen two areas - if the right deals present themselves

Eddie Howe is looking for additional cover at right-back and in midfield - if the right deals come along today.

Howe stated that there would be "no major business" only on Tuesday but by the same token insisted Newcastle were "still looking" meaning the door is ajar on some potential deals.

United are believed to have made an enquiry for West Ham youngster Harrison Ashby to cover for Emil Krafth.

Howe stated last night he would be leaving the club on deadline day after four and a half years of service.
