Eddie Howe ‘has now decided’ on £15m signing at St James’ Park

Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has decided to push ahead with a big-money deal which will see Aston Villa full-back Matt Targett remain at St James’ Park on a permanent basis, according to transfer insider Dean Jones.
Targett joined the Magpies on loan until the end of the season on deadline day of the January transfer window, but it appears he could remain on Tyneside instead of returning to Villa Park
Targett was allowed to head to St James’ Park after Villa head coach Steven Gerrard opted to sign Lucas Digne in a deal worth up to £25million from Everton.
According to 90min, Newcastle and Targett’s parent club already have a broad agreement in place that would see the 26-year-old make his loan switch permanent for £15million.
