Pardew targets two new signings INSIDE Toon dressing room
Newcastle boss Alan Pardew has revealed his next two priority signings.
Both players are already at St James’ Park but sealing new contracts for midfield ace Danny Guthrie and Argentinian centre-back Fabricio Colocinni is dominating his thinking.
Guthrie has been a revelation when standing in for Cheick Tiote in the midfield anchor role while captain Colocinni is arguably the Magpies’ player of the season so far.
Pardew said: “Danny has impressed me this season. He has been outstanding when given his chance.
“I haven’t had a chat with him about a new contract but it will happen shortly.
“When Tiote went out of the team injured and Danny came in, it was seamless.”
Pardew believes Guthrie can become a top player at Newcastle if he commits his future to the club.
He added: “His passing is fantastic. He makes a big statement on the pitch. He just fits into how I play.
“These negotiations are going to be difficult for him. But he’s in a good place and he needs to remember the grass isn’t always greener.
“And high on my list is a new contract for Coloccini. I would like to get his future at the club sorted out.
“He has been outstanding and justified my decision to give him the armband. He is a huge player for us.”
