Newcastle seal Ramsey move

Newcastle United push to add Ramsey from Aston Villa with a medical as they pursue a fourth summer signing.

Newcastle seal Jacob Ramsey move to complete midfield overhaul

Newcastle United have completed their third summer signing, Malick Thiaw from AC Milan, on a four-year deal reported to be around £34.3 million. The centre-back joins a squad that also includes Anthony Elanga and Aaron Ramsdale as part of its summer recruitment.
Fabrizio Romano has said a £40 million deal for Jacob Ramsey is in place, with personal terms agreed and Ramsey travelling to Tyneside for a medical. Eddie Howe is known to be a fan of Ramsey, and the move would add freshness to Newcastle’s midfield ahead of the new season.

Newcastle’s work this summer reveals a clear plan to build a deeper spine. Ramsey would bring ball progression and attacking intent to Howe’s midfield, while Thiaw strengthens defence with a ball-playing profile. If the Isak situation shifts, the gap at centre-forward could widen, pushing the club to act quickly in attack. The window signals ambition, but not certainty; the balance between spending and on-pitch returns will soon be tested.

The window will be judged by results on the pitch, not conjecture off it.
