As the winter transfer window enters its final stretch, Newcastle United are yet to make a significant signing. However, the Magpies are being linked with several players, including a surprise offer from Barcelona for defender Eric Garcia.
According to reports, Garcia is one of several players being offered to Newcastle by Barcelona, as the Catalan club looks to offload some of its fringe players. While Garcia has experience playing in the Premier League with Manchester City, it remains to be seen whether Newcastle will pursue a deal for the defender.
Meanwhile, Newcastle’s search for a new striker continues, with Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin emerging as a top target. The 25-year-old striker is out of contract at the end of the season, and Newcastle are expected to face competition from other clubs for his signature.

Former West Ham scout Mick Brown believes that Calvert-Lewin would be a great fit for Newcastle, providing a more reliable option up front than current striker Callum Wilson. “I think it’s time for Calvert-Lewin to move on from Everton,” Brown said. “If he does become available on a free, Newcastle are going to be in that race because they haven’t got a lot of depth in terms of quality strikers.”
While Newcastle’s transfer business has been quiet so far this winter, it’s clear that the club is working hard behind the scenes to strengthen its squad. With the Magpies pushing to sign Calvert-Lewin and considering a deal for Garcia, it’s shaping up to be an interesting end to the transfer window.
