Newcastle legend Alan Shearer has expressed his frustration with the club’s lack of activities in the summer transfer window.
Newcastle have been looking to land Benjamin Sesko from Leipzig but look to have lost out to Manchester United in what is their latest transfer blow this summer.
Reacting to the news, Shearer, in an interview with Betfair, criticized the Magpies’ inability to secure top targets, especially considering the contrasting seasons both clubs experienced.

“It sounds as if Benjamin Sesko had two clubs to choose from in Newcastle and Man United. One that won a trophy last year and is now playing Champions League football this season – and one that didn’t win anything, finished 15th and had a dreadful season.
“I understand that Man United are a huge football club, not so much a huge football team at this moment in time. I get it. I understand it. It looks as if, by all accounts, he prefers a move to Man United.
“It’s disappointing again from Newcastle, another target it looks like they’re going to miss out on and I said it about a week ago, it looks as if it’s been a disastrous window for Newcastle.”
