“So, no Jan transfer window for us then” – A lot of Newcastle United supporters are disappointed with the latest update from Steve Bruce concerning transfers.
Speaking in his press conference, the Toon manager confirmed that he and Lee Charnley have had discussions about transfers and that a meeting is scheduled for next week.
However, Bruce also claimed that no serious discussions had taken place and that he knows what he wants to add to the squad but that it will be difficult to get what he wants.
This has annoyed plenty of Toon fans who are now preparing themselves for a January transfer window of little activity from the Magpies.
See the best of the reaction below.
Bruce: "I spoke to Lee (Charnley) yesterday & we have a transfer meeting with Steve Nickson next week. It's always difficult in January. If something presents itself we'll act but we haven't chatted seriously yet. I know what I'd like to have but getting it's another thing" #nufc
