Newcastle United believe that they should have attempted to sign Nathaniel Chalobah from Chelsea.
Newcastle United fans have been left frustrated after Watford sealed a deal to sign Nathaniel Chalobah from Chelsea.
Chalobah agreed a £5 million switch to the Hornets last night according to The Sun, and Newcastle fans feel that they have missed out on a bargain.
The England youth international appears to have moved for a cheap price, when compared to some of the other transfer moves which Premier League sides have completed this summer.
And Newcastle fans feel that Rafael Benitez should have tried to rival Watford for Chalobah.
Newcastle are known to be looking to add a central midfielder this summer, but Benitez appears to have other targets.
Newcastle have had a frustrating time in the transfer window to date, with just two new players joining.
The Magpies have completed deals for Florian Lejeune and Christian Atsu, but realise that there is still a lot more work which needs to be done, if they are to compete back at Premier League level.
