Newcastle boss Bruce 'rewarded' with £50M transfer budget

Newcastle United boss Steve Bruce is working with a £50m transfer budget this summer.

Bruce will be rewarded for Newcastle's strong finish to the season with a £50m 'war chest', says The Sun

Recent reports have indicated Bruce's budget could be set at around £12m, with loan signing and free agents the likely arrivals once again.

Bruce is understood to be in the market for defensive reinforcements this summer, with Celtic's Kristoffer Ajer also strongly linked with a summer switch.

A permanent deal for Arsenal midfielder Joe Willock after his successful six month is a priority for Bruce.
