\nNEWCASTLE: Eddie Howe admits it could be a busy end to the January transfer window for Newcastle United although he accepts incomings are far from guaranteed.<\/p>\n
\nThe Magpies have completed the $55 million signing of England under-21 forward Anthony Gordon from Everton but face a race against time to bring in the two further players Howe has set his sights on.<\/p>\n
\nThey have agreed on a nominal fee to take youngster Harrison Ashby from West Ham United but are set to lose both Jonjo Shelvey and Karl Darlow to Nottingham Forest and Hull City respectively.<\/p>\n
\nThat leaves a two-player gap in the Magpies\u2019 25-man Premier League squad, with Ashby and Gordon both sitting outside of the group.<\/p>\n
\nHowe is keen to make sure he replaces Shelvey at least, although he is far from certain the right player will be available to plug the gap.<\/p>\n
\nSpeaking ahead of the second leg of the club\u2019s Carabao Cup semifinal with Southampton, Howe said: \u201cFrom a football decision perspective, we will see what we can do in the market to try to bring a player. There\u2019s no guarantee on that. With other transfers, we will try and see what we can do. In terms of permanent signings, that will be very difficult. We will look at a loan situation, but it has to be the right player.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nHowe also revealed that he did not want to lose Shelvey despite some persistent injuries this season.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cIt will be very difficult to keep Jonjo currently, with where he wants his career to go,\u201d said Howe. \u201cWe can keep players who want to leave. There is nothing to say that every player that wants to leave you have to let go. But you have to take every situation independently and try to judge everything, judge what is best for him and the club.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nHowe acknowledged that Shelvey has had talks with Premier League rivals Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cJonjo has been a huge player for this football club over the last seven years. He has been an important part of my squad since I have been here,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\nThe transfer window in England closes at 11 p.m. GMT on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\nThe signing of Gordon has divided fan opinion, especially as the player is one who polarizes with his on-field aggression and antics.<\/p>\n
\nHe also went on strike to force the move through \u2014 and Howe has addressed the player\u2019s mental state ahead of a potential first appearance in the Premier League at the weekend.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cFor someone of his age, we\u2019re going to need to really support him and guide him through this move,\u201d said Howe, who will not be able to play Gordon against Saints as he is cup-tied.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cCertainly, from the person that I met yesterday, I was hugely impressed by how he handled it. It\u2019s a big day. I\u2019ve been there as a player,\u201d the Newcastle coach added. \u201cYou go to a new club, and it can be daunting. I thought he was excellent in everything that he had to encounter, meeting new teammates, meeting new coaching staff, getting a lot of information, trying to settle in.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nGordon, who was also interested in Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur, said Newcastle were the only club for him.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cSince I heard of the interest, I was always convinced Newcastle were for me,\u201d he said. \u201cI think the fan base and the city really suits me as a person, the way the team are playing under the gaffer at the minute really suits me, and the club just look like they’re heading in the right direction.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI feel like it\u2019s a really big step,\u201d Gordon added. \u201cPeople haven\u2019t seen what I\u2019m capable of yet. I think under the gaffer, and the way the club\u2019s going, I can really excel here.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
