Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe admits Financial Fair Play worries will drag into the summer market.

Howe concedes they will need to be careful when seeking a new striker signing.

He said: "If you have an injury to one of the two strikers that we have then, of course, you're going to look at it and think, 'We need a striker'.

"The issue that we have is they're usually very expensive and, then, if those two strikers are fit, what do you do with the third one?

"It's not as easy as, 'Do you need a striker? Let's go and get one' because we're having to be very smart with the money that we do have, with Financial Fair Play and putting that money into the best positions possible so it's a delicate balance."
