The season is over and Newcastle United players enjoyed an emotional lap of honour around St James’ Park with Champions League and the Carabao Cup in the bag. However, for many, that may have been the last time they enjoyed the famous Tyneside turf.
Callum Wilson is a player whose contract expires next month and he enjoyed being serenaded around the stadium by the Toon faithful. His future is set to be confirmed in the coming weeks, with the likes of John Ruddy, Mark Gillespie and Jamal Lewis facing nervous waits on their futures.
Looking further ahead of Newcastle will face a similar dilemma in 12 months. Several high-profile stars are heading into the final year of their deals - a fact that will not be lost on the St James’ Park hierarchy.
As it stands, eight first-team players are set to leave the Magpies next summer. NewcastleWorld has profiled the list in full - how many would you keep at United beyond their current contract?
