Howe Says Lewis Miley Will Stay as Newcastle End Transfer Talk

The stance reflects lessons from the PSR-led sale of Elliot Anderson.

Overview

  • After scoring and assisting in the 4-1 win over Everton, Eddie Howe said he is determined to keep the 19-year-old at the club.
  • Former scout Mick Brown now says Newcastle have no plans to let Miley leave, reversing his July view that offers might be considered to aid finances.
  • Summer interest from Premier League rivals, including links to Crystal Palace, was reported but Newcastle are not entertaining proposals.
  • Despite Miley’s rise, reporting says Newcastle still aim to add a midfielder in January, with links to Elliot Anderson and Kobbie Mainoo under consideration.
  • Club thinking has been influenced by last year’s PSR pressures, having sold Anderson to Nottingham Forest for £35 million.
