In a significant coup, Newcastle United has successfully signed 18-year-old Spanish winger Antonio Cordero, outpacing Spanish football giants Real Madrid and Barcelona. The young talent, known for his agility and playmaking skills, will join the Magpies once the summer transfer window opens, following the expiration of his contract with Málaga CF.
Cordero’s decision to join Newcastle was influenced by a visit to the club with his family in January. Sporting director Paul Mitchell emphasized the club’s commitment to building a sustainable future by recruiting emerging talents like Cordero. The winger’s impressive performance this season, including five goals and six assists in 32 appearances, showcases his potential to make a significant impact in the Premier League.
This strategic move highlights Newcastle’s growing appeal in the competitive European football market and their dedication to nurturing young talent for long-term success.
