Miguel Almiron is Newcastle’s record signing
“And broadly speaking that gives us what we have to spend in a year. It’s not difficult to do the maths – that’s what we have to spend.
“In addition to that, you then have the funds generated from player sales.
“We would look to spend our budget on a small number of high-quality players, rather than dilute the money over so many.
“We’d then look to supplement this with loans. We want players that can make a difference and improve the team.

“The idea we turn up every year just hoping to survive just isn’t correct.
“We want to improve – but do so sustainably.â€
Newcastle’s surplus figure was £58.7million at the end of the 2017/18 season and it is expected to be around £50million over the next two years.
Charnley wants quality over quantity of players, which means that they could break their record signing.
