Though they look set to avoid relegation, it's been a disappointing season for Newcastle United.

Steve Bruce will likely look to add more quality to his squad when the transfer window opens, while there will likely be players departing as well.

With that in mind, we've outlined 9 transfer rumours from January Newcastle United must consider revisiting this summer...

Newcastle were linked with the PSV full-back in January but did not make a move for him.

If Bruce is looking to shore up things at the back, signing the Dutchman could make sense.

The Magpies were linked with the Manchester United defender during the winter window.

He's got bags of Premier League experience and a fresh start could help him kick-start his career.

Staying at Old Trafford, young full-back Brandon Williams was reportedly targetted by Newcastle in the previous window.

He remained at the Manchester club but a loan move in the summer could represent a fantastic bit of business.

If Bruce wants to sign a new full-back, perhaps looking long-term is the right way to go.

Newcastle reportedly eyed Djed Spence ahead of the January window and he is certainly a player with potential. Though it would be a risky move, it's one that could pay off.

The Huddersfield Town midfielder has impressed this season and could help to bolster Bruce's midfield.

Newcastle were one of the sides touted with an interest back in January and it would make sense if they reignited it ahead of the summer.

Siriki Dembele helped fire Peterborough United to promotion and his dynamism could be the boost Newcastle need ahead of next season.

The Magpies were linked with the forward back in the previous window and he remains an interesting option.

Though a move didnt materialise in January, there were reports of interest from Newcastle (The Sunday Mirror (20/12, p71)).

He would represent an exciting addition for the North East club.

Dwight Gayle was linked with a move away in January and now seems like the right time for Newcastle to let him go, rather than trying to tie him down to a new deal.

The 31-year-old has struggled to make much of an impact over the past few years.

Another forward that was reportedly generating interest in the winter window, Andy Carroll is also out of contract in the summer.

He was handed a new deal last year but after just one Premier League goal this season, you feel it could be the right time to say goodbye.
