Newcastle Transfers: 10 Potential January Signings Benitez Must Consider

10. Danny Ings - Liverpool

The former Burnley man's career at Anfield has come to a standstill following two severe injuries and he would be sure to jump at the chance of regular football. Newcastle are thought to be one of four clubs vying for the forward's services after he was told to seek new opportunities by Jurgen Klopp.

Still only 25, Ings has a real chance to get his career back on track and a move to the Magpies could see him lead the line for Rafa's men. In a World Cup year, every player is desperate to prove their worth to their national coach and Ings will be no different.

Benitez has been heavily linked with using his Liverpool connections to bring Ings to Tyneside and the move is likely to be welcomed by the Geordie faithful.
