Newcastle United are determined to sign Harry Winks from Tottenham Hotspur in the January transfer window, according to The Daily Mail.
Harry Winks transfer rumour
It has been reported that Newcastle have made Winks their ‘prime’ January transfer target.
New Newcastle manager Eddie Howe wants to sign a controlling and creative midfielder.
Winks is the Magpies’ main target.
The Spurs midfielder himself is open to leaving Spurs for more playing time.
However, the England international’s stance could change under new Tottenham manager Antonio Conte.
Could a Newcastle transfer happen?
Winks has made just one start in the Premier League so far this season.
The Tottenham no. 8 made only nine starts in the league last season.
Now, we know that Winks is a very good footballer.
After all, the midfielder has earned 10 caps for England.
Winks does need to move on for his own good if he does not get much playing time under Conte in the coming weeks.
A transfer to Newcastle could help the midfielder.
The Magpies themselves would get a very experienced player who is “really good” and “intelligent”, according to former former Crystal Palace forward Clinton Morrison on Sky Sports last month.
