Newcastle United have agreed a deal to sign 18-year-old Antonio Cordero from Spanish second tier side Malaga. Barcelona and Real Madrid were both interested in the winger, who will join Newcastle in the summer on a free transfer with his Malaga contract expiring in June. Cordero joined Malaga's youth system in 2021 and signed his first professional contract with the club the following year.

Since winning the Carabao Cup, their first domestic trophy in 70 years, they have extended their winning run in the league to five matches and are now four points behind second-placed Arsenal in the Premier League. Crystal Palace were simply overwhelmed. With manager Eddie Howe again missing as he recovers from pneumonia, his team did him proud, as they had in beating Manchester United 4-1 on Sunday.
