Rafa reassured on Toon targets
RAFA BENITEZ has been urged to have patience with Newcastle’s lack of progress in the transfer market.
Benitez wants at least five new recruits and has grown frustrated by the slow start to his rebuild, leading to claims he could quit St James’ Park.
But Toon top brass confirmed at a Fans’ Forum meeting they retained a “commitment to strengthening in positions identified by the manager”.
Benitez has been told his frustrations are shared and that “there is confidence that the squad will be improved.”
