There is a strong argument to suggest Newcastle will have done well, even given the extreme turbulence.
Alexander Isak has not softened his stance that he is determined to leave by September 1, and the Yoane Wissa deal from Brentford is proving far more complicated than some originally suggested. But, if they keep Isak and find a replacement for Callum Wilson, Newcastle will have strengthened every area of the squad they had hoped to.
Anthony Elanga and Malick Thiaw raise the quality levels at right-sided forward and right-sided centre-back, two long-term problem areas, while offering a younger profile than Miguel Almiron and Schar. Aaron Ramsdale, 28, is significantly younger than 36-year-old Martin Dubravka and, although the goalkeeper has only signed on an initial loan from Southampton, Newcastle retain an option to buy.
Jacob Ramsey is not a like-for-like replacement for Sean Longstaff — the former primarily plays as a left-sided No 8 and the latter on the right — but Newcastle’s latest signing is more offensive-minded and has a higher ceiling.
