The Magpies have made a huge improvement on the field in recent weeks, banishing any thoughts of relegation in the mean time. They currently ly in 12th place in the Premier League and now thoughts have turned to summer spending.
Keegan has today been linked with moves for West Ham's Dean Ashton, Everton's Leighton Baines and Rangers' Carlos Cuellar. Ashton, 24, is said to be unhappy at Upton Park and speculation is mounting that he will be on his way in the summer.
Meanwhile, Baines has struggled to nail down a first team place at Everton since joining them from Wigan last summer. He has only made a handful of appearances and many people feel he could be sent packing in the summer.
Rangers defender Carlos Cuellar has been in sensational form this season. He narrowly missed out on SPL player of the year last week behind Celtic's Aidan McGeady. Personally I feel all would be decent signings for Newcastle, however I do think they need to be buying better quality if they are to challenge for a UEFA Cup place next season.
