Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer has urged the club to sign new players this summer, after they narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League.
The Magpies beat West Ham United 2-0 to confirm their top-flight status, and Shearer praised the players for their performance.
He told BBC Sport: "I don't think anyone could say Newcastle didn't deserve the result today. There was a great atmosphere, the players showed they wanted to stay in the Premier League and the fans backed them. I'm delighted they will be playing top-flight football next season.
"Now if they stop selling their best players, bring in a few new faces and play the best team in cup competitions, you never know, we might just have a very good club on our hands."
Newcastle finished 15th in the table.
