Newcastle will be looking to strengthen several areas of their squad but their spending will be affected due to PSR restrictions.

It has been claimed that Murphy will be given a chance to impress and stake a claim for the left-back spot during pre-season.

The teenager will travel with the squad for their pre-season tour if fit and will be given an opportunity to catch everyone’s eye.

He is rated highly by Eddie Howe and his staff and they will take a closer look at him in the summer.

If he impresses, Murphy could have a good chance of starting next season as a real contender for the left-back spot.
