Rarely, if ever, has there been more excitement and anticipation ahead of the start of a new Newcastle United season.

Eddie Howe’s side will be playing Champions League football in 2023/24 and have made a statement signing in the summer transfer window already, splashing out more than £50 million to land Italy midfielder Sandro Tonali from AC Milan, with more expected to follow.

The Newcastle players returned to training this week and, as they did last year, will begin their pre-season schedule with a game against local non-league side Gateshead on Saturday.

The Mags will then travel up to Ibrox to face Rangers in Allan McGregor’s testimonial in midweek before heading off for their US tour, which will see them face Aston Villa, Chelsea, and Brighton in the inaugural Premier League Summer Series

A 5-1 win against their fellow Tynesiders represented a perfect start to pre-season last summer and though Howe will be keen to see a strong showing once again, Saturday’s game is all about getting minutes into his players’ legs as they step up preparations for the upcoming campaign.
