The Knights could well be on the lookout for a winger with Ken Sio moving back to England to Salford following a two-year spell with the Knights.
Newcastle are putting together an impressive squad as they attempt to build on a solid campaign in 2018. David Klemmer has been brought in as the enforcer they need along with Tim Glasby from Melbourne Storm and Makinson could provide the X-Factor on the wing.
