Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez has dropped a worrying transfer update.

After his side’s 4-0 defeat at Anfield, the Spaniard confirmed that he is still in the dark about Newcastle’s January transfer plans.

Clearly, Benitez is not sure about the backing in the January transfer window and it will be interesting to see if Ashley can fund a couple of new signings.

The Magpies are in desperate need of additions and the fans will be very worried about the situation.

Newcastle have been in very poor form this season and if this continues, they could go down at the end.

Benitez’ side is lacking in multiple areas but they need to improve their attack immediately. The Magpies have struggled to create and score goals since the start of the season.

Newcastle fans have reacted to the comments from their manager. They took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the situation.

Here are some of the tweets from earlier.

I’m worried rafa will stay!!!!! Surely his chances have ran out!!! His bad changes against wolves cost us… Parked bus at home against bottom of league then went for it by changing a right back for a right bacl… And then today… A tactical genius my arse…
