The Magpies recorded back to back 2nd place finishes under the management of Kevin Keegan, the summer of ‘96 saw the club bring home Alan Shearer for a then world record fee of £15m . 

Led by the exhilarating partnership of Shearer and Ferdinand, Newcastle started the season in scintillating form, topping the league table for much of the campaign. However, a late-season slump allowed Manchester United to overtake them in the title race. Despite finishing as runners-up in the Premier League, Newcastle's achievements were were celebrated as they secured a Champions League spot.

“The Geordie Goal Machine”



Alan Shearer. A true Newcastle United legend. The striker joined his hometown club in 1996 for a then-world record transfer fee of £15 million and quickly established himself as a fan favourite. The Geordie’s lethal finishing, physicality, and aerial ability made him a nightmare for opposition defenders. Despite not having a trophy cabinet to rival his incredible goal-scoring record, Shearer's predatory instincts in front of goal were simply unmatched. With a mammoth Premier League record tally of 260 strikes to his name, he could have probably scored with his eyes closed.
