10 Players Newcastle Should Break Their Transfer Record For

3. Ezequiel Garay

Age: 28 Club: Zenit St Petersburg Nationality: Argentinian Estimated Market Value: £15 million -20 million League Apps (2014-15): 15 Reports last month claimed that Real Madrid were looking to try and re-sign Ezequiel Garay as they planned for life without Sergio Ramos. Something they're no longer doing. The Argentine who joined Madrid in 2008 was sold to Benfica in 2011 and now plays for Zenit Saint Petersburg, who secured the Russian title last season. The defender is reportedly unhappy in Russia and is eyeing a move away from the club. It would take a large bid from Newcastle for Zenit to accept but around £15 million-£20 million would be fitting for a player with a wealth of international and Champions League experience. The player's signature would move the Magpies' aspirations a lot closer to a Champions League finish than avoiding relegation.
