The 2024/25 Premier League season is just around the corner, and Newcastle United fans are filled with hope, belief, and ambition. After a successful summer of signings, the Magpies are looking strong, and many are tipping them to finish in the top three.
One of the key factors that could contribute to Newcastle’s success is their relatively light load of players participating in the 2024 European Championships. While other top Premier League clubs like Manchester City, Arsenal, and Liverpool have a large number of players representing their countries, Newcastle has only four players participating in the tournament.
This could give Newcastle an advantage in terms of preparation and squad availability for the upcoming season. With fewer players involved in the Euros, Eddie Howe will have more of his first-team squad available for pre-season training, giving them a head start over their rivals.
Newcastle’s signings this summer have been impressive, with the likes of Anthony Gordon, Tino Livramento, and Harvey Barnes strengthening the squad. Yankuba Minteh, who has been on loan at Feyenoord, is another player who could make a significant impact next season.
The Magpies’ fans are excited about the prospect of a top-three finish, and with good reason. The team has been building momentum over the past few seasons, and with the right signings and preparation, they could be a force to be reckoned with in the Premier League.
In other news, Mauricio Pochettino has refused to rule out a return to the Premier League after leaving Chelsea by mutual consent. The Argentine boss has been linked with several top clubs, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up next.
As the new season approaches, Newcastle United fans are filled with optimism. With a strong squad, a favorable Euro 2024 schedule, and a talented manager in Eddie Howe, the Magpies are poised to make a serious push for the top three.
