Keegan Searches for Worldclass Playmaker · Apr 7, 08:10 PM

Newcastle’s recent resurgence (unbeaten in four, winning three on the bounce) has led to some on Tyneside calling for owner Mike Ashley to splash the cash in the summer. A self made billionaire, Ashley is sure to want some big names playing at St. James’ next season to take the club to the next level.

While Manchester City and Chelsea have been linked with Ronaldinho, Newcastle have begun to investigate bringing Barcelona counterpart Deco to Newcastle. The 30 year old playmaker is seen as the ideal fit on Tyneside as Keegan seeks to shape the Newcastle squad into his own. Should Newcastle fail with a move for Deco, Sporting Lisbon star Moutinho would be next on Keegan’s shopping list.
