Newcastle Transfers: 10 Major Deals That Will Happen This Summer

7. Dan Gosling

It's strange to think that Dan Gosling was once one of the most sought after young players in the country. But fitness issues and questionable off field decision making have plighted the midfielders career. His contracts up and the club won't retain him. Gosling might have left long ago had it not been for his wages. The club fought off fierce competition to bring him in on a free transfer from Everton and his salary was a reflection of the clubs valuation of him - he was meant to be a first choice player. It didn't work out, and nobody has valued him as high since. At age 24 there is still time for Gosling to resurrect his fledgling career. Pardew has rarely called upon him and the club won't pay him close to his current salary so expect him to leave and end four miserable years on Tyneside.
