Are Newcastle United doomed for relegation if they do not make signings in the January transfer window?
Benitez has admitted that he has no idea if January will be an important month for Newcastle.
When asked if it was going to be an important month, Benitez told The Shields Gazette: “I have no idea.”
Benitez’s admission could be worrying for Newcastle fans, as the January transfer window will come around soon.
The current Newcastle squad is not great and is already struggling to cope in the Premier League.
True, even if the Magpies make signings in the January transfer window, they are still going to be fighting for survival in the English top flight come the end of the season.
It is important that Newcastle start planning for January signings, but if Benitez has still got no idea about how much money he will get, then it could be tough for the Magpies when January comes around.
Newcastle are 15th in the Premier League table at the moment with just 15 points from as many matches, only five points above the relegation zone.
