Newcastle United completes 29 total transfers in summer 2026 window
Summary

Newcastle United finalized three additional player transactions in the final hours of the summer 2026 transfer window, bringing the club's total moves to 29. The latest additions include the signing of 18-year-old midfielder Ousmane Diabaté from Gençlerbirliği, who will remain on loan with the Turkish club. Defender Leo Shahar has joined FC Arouca on a season-long loan agreement. These moves contribute to a window activity list consisting of nine incoming signings and 20 outgoing transfers. The club's total expenditure on new arrivals reached approximately £290.5 million, while departures generated £252.8 million in sales and loan fees. Management projects that the turnover, which included the exits of high-earning players such as Bruno Guimaraes, Sandro Tonali, and Kieran Trippier, will result in a lower total wage bill for the upcoming campaign.
