Newcastle United transfer news: Yoane Wissa, James Trafford, Randal Kolo Muani and more
Having ended their trophy drought with Carabao Cup success last season, Newcastle United now have work to do in the transfer market. With a return to the Champions League, the Magpies need to strengthen their squad to compete at the highest level. Boss Eddie Howe has made it known that he is looking to work fast this summer, seemingly not wanting to repeat the sort of saga that saw Marc Guehi remain at Crystal Palace despite strong interest last summer. The Saudi-backed club were without any major recruits over the past two seasons due to PSR rules, but started the summer with a big move for Anthony Elanga – with the Nottingham Forest winger joining in a deal worth £55m – and are set to make more notable additions as they continue a pursuit of Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike. Here's everything you need to know about Newcastle United 's summer transfer plans: There are four key areas of improvement this summer. The first is up front, with the club seemingly hunting for another striker to join the reliable Alexander Isak. Ekitike fits the bill, with the Magpies having already seen a £70m bid rejected. Newcastle needed reinforcements on the right flank too as they prepare to do battle in the Champions League, and with squad depth likely playing a key part in their recruitment plan this summer, the club sealed a deal for Elanga earlier this month. In midfield, the Magpies have plenty of options, with the likes of Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes probably in no need of additional support. However, another central defender would be a major plus as the club returns to Europe's top club competition, with Guehi having been the notable target last summer. Finally, Newcastle have been linked to signing a new goalkeeper, which has become an apparent area that would benefit from improvement. Despite Nick Pope's class, his injury record has sometimes meant Howe is forced to contend with his his back-up. Done deals Ins: Anthony Elanga (Nottingham Forest, £55m), Antonito Cordero (Malaga, free transfer) Outs: Lloyd Kelly (Juventus, £15m), Sean Longstaff (Leeds United, £12m) Jamal Lewis (out of contract), Callum Wilson (out of contract) Potential targets James Trafford, Burnley In the goalkeeping department, Newcastle's principal target remains James Trafford. The England international, now 22 years old, recorded a remarkable 29 clean sheets in 45 Championship games on route to promotion back into the Premier League with Burnley. He has been a figure of interest for Howe's side in the past, though it looks like they'll face competition from Manchester City. Yoane Wissa, Brentford With the news surrounding Isak and Ekitike, Newcastle quickly moved away from the deal for the Frenchman, and are said to now be interetsed in Brentford's Yoane Wissa. The Congo international could be available for around £50m, with the Bees holding that valuation for their record goalscorer, who grabbed 20 goals in all competitions last season. Randal Kolo Muani, PSG Reports have emerged that the Magpies could be interested in Randal Kolo Muani after their failed pursuit of Hugo Ekitike. They are said to want a striker whether or not Isak leaves, and the PSG man – who spent last season on loan at Juventus – could be a good cut-price option. Axel Disasi, Chelsea Reports from France continue to link Axel Disasi to Newcastle, as was the case during the January window. Chelsea signed the centre-back for around £38m and could be open to a sale, with the Frenchman having spent the second half of last season on loan at Aston Villa.

Car Deal of the Day: Hyundai Ioniq 5 N will show you EVs can be crazy for £398 a month
Well-equipped Stunning to drive £398 a month We've only just brought you a fabulous Deal of the Day based on the Hyundai Ioniq 5, but while that car is an excellent family-friendly EV, the Ioniq 5 N version we have here is something to really set your pulse racing. Advertisement - Article continues below Discovered through the Auto Express Find a Car service, this deal from Lease4Less Hyundai will see the Ioniq 5 N on your drive for £398 a month - or £128 more per month than the standard model we featured recently. The deal for the N is based over a two-year period with an initial deposit of £5,050. The maximum annual mileage is set at 5,000 miles, though you can double this for £50 a month. The Ioniq 5 N has a chunky 84kWh battery, but its range tops out at a fairly average 284 miles. That's quite a way down on the standard car's 354 miles (with the same battery, no less), but there's a very good reason for that. The N comes with a dual-motor powertrain generating 601bhp, but if that's not enough, there's an overboost button on the steering wheel to bring the combined output to 641bhp and 740Nm of torque. The result is a supercar-baiting 3.4-second 0-62mph time. Skip advert Advertisement - Article continues below Utilising the innovative virtual gearshift technology (which works incredibly naturally) to simulate an eight-speed gearbox, the N makes keen drivers feel more at home than most EVs. It beats quite a few petrol-powered performance cars for thrills, too. Advertisement - Article continues below Where the Ioniq 5 N really impresses isn't on the straights, but in the corners. It belies its heavy 2,235kg kerbweight thanks to clever adaptive dampers, torque vectoring, an electric limited-slip differential and pointy steering that, together, give a wonderfully connected feel. Couple that with the immediate power from the electric motors and you can have some serious fun. The N is just as well-equipped as the regular Ioniq 5 too with wireless smartphone charging and a Bose sound system - plus it has more than enough space for the family, making it a versatile performance EV.

The simple hack that means you never have to pay full price at McDonald's – it'll get you a whole meal for cheap
WE all love a McDonald's treat, but what if we told you there's a savvy way to enjoy your favourites without ever paying full price? A genius hack shared by TikTok account @ thefinancegurl is currently buzzing, revealing a simple trick to bag a Big Mac, McChicken Sandwich, or even a McNuggets meal with a side for less than a fiver. 1 Forget hunting for vouchers or waiting for special deals. This clever method uses something you already receive: your McDonald's receipt. As the finance guru herself explains: "when you get a receipt, you'll notice that there's a website address at the top where you can fill in a satisfaction survey." The process is refreshingly straightforward. Simply head to that website and fill in the 12-digit code that's on your receipt. You'll then be taken to a "super quick" customer satisfaction survey, which she assures takes "about two minutes to complete." The reward for your two minutes? A "special voucher" that is nothing short of golden. This voucher allows you to order a Big Mac plus a medium fries or a side salad for only £2.99. And if the Big Mac isn't calling your name, don't worry - "there's also alternatives you can choose from, like the McNugget meal, a McChicken sandwich or a Filet-O-Fish." McDonald's launches brand-new burger featuring never-before-seen sauce As @ thefinancegurl demonstrates, all you need to do is "show your QR code at the till and state what your preference is." For her recent trip, she opted for " a McChicken sandwich with medium fries, and I got tap water, which is completely free. 'So my entire meal came to only £2.99." It's a brilliant way to enjoy a satisfying meal without stretching your budget. McDonald's receipt So next time you're at McDonald's, remember to grab that receipt - it could be your ticket to a fantastic deal. The video, which was shared on 8 June, has received 407k views and 214 comments as many rush to share their thoughts. One wrote: 'I do this everytime!! 'I take our own drinks and feed a family of five for £15.' A second added: 'Useful hack.' While a third said: 'Genius didn't know this thank you.' How to save at McDonald's You could end up being charged more for a McDonald's meal based solely on the McDonald's restaurant you choose. Research by The Sun found a Big Mac meal can be up to 30% cheaper at restaurants just two miles apart from each other. You can pick up a Big Mac and fries for just £2.99 at any time by filling in a feedback survey found on McDonald's receipts. The receipt should come with a 12-digit code which you can enter into the Food for Thought website alongside your submitted survey. You'll then receive a five-digit code which is your voucher for the £2.99 offer. There are some deals and offers you can only get if you have the My McDonald's app, so it's worth signing up to get money off your meals. The MyMcDonald's app can be downloaded on iPhone and Android phones and is quick to set up. You can also bag freebies and discounts on your birthday if you're a My McDonald's app user. The chain has recently sent out reminders to app users to fill out their birthday details - otherwise they could miss out on birthday treats.
