With his Newcastle side near-enough safe from the threat of relegation this season, Rafa Benitez can now apportion some of his attention on who he wants to keep at St James’ Park this summer.

Then again, Benitez is a meticulous operator and will already have categorised the personnel he will retain and those he will attempt to move on when the transfer window reopens in May following the conclusion of the Premier League campaign.

There are a few players whose United careers are over as long as the Spaniard is in charge and they will be the first Benitez attempts to offload, while a couple of prominent names may be susceptible to being sold should any bid prove too good to turn down, especially if Mike Ashley remains in situ as owner.

Speculation concerning incomings and outgoings is bound to intensify as we edge closer to the window, meaning only wild approximations can be made about who will be departing Tyneside this summer before the next chapter of the ‘Rafalution’ begins.
