Newcastle United are set to put moves for a young forward and centre-back on the backburner, sources have told Football Insider<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Magpies, who spent big in the summer transfer window, had planned to add to their squad in both areas in January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Football Insider <\/strong>revealed on Sunday (22 October) that signing a central midfielder is now the top priority for Eddie Howe\u2019s side in the January transfer window.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sources have also told Football Insider <\/strong>(21 October) that the Magpies are plotting a January swoop for Man City outcast Kalvin Phillips.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tonali has made 11 appearances for the Magpies since joining from AC Milan during the recent summer window for a reported<\/a> \u00a355million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
