Newcastle United: Fans warn new signing Reagan Thomson over club future

According to leaked images via the Chronicle, Newcastle United may have completed their first January signing in bringing youngster Reagan Thomson to St. James’ Park – but some supporters have warned the Scotsman that he could be ‘destined for oblivion’ at his new club.

Thomson, who has been linked with a Magpies move since before the window opened, seems to have finally put pen to paper on a deal to join Newcastle’s youth ranks as they attempt to bolster their academy options. The 16-year-old midfielder could be hopeful of replicating fellow youngsters Sean and Matthew Longstaff, as they have set a fine example of how to break into Steve Bruce’s first team, with a scout report from the Chronicle back in December indicating just what supporters can expect from him.

According to the piece, Thomson is a player who likes to ’cause havoc’ with his movement into the box but will also make an effort to bring teammates into play – evident by his 76% pass completion rate for Scotland’s U17s against Iceland back in October.

However, judging by the responses of these Newcastle fans, they have warned Thomson he may not have a future on Tyneside. Find all of their best comments down below.
