Premier League side beat Real Madrid and Barcelona to Spain U21 star

Real Madrid and Barcelona are expected to lose in the summer transfer race for the 18-year-old Malaga star Antonio Cordero.

This season, born in Jerez, as a star in the Segunda division, came to the fore with six goals and six assists when Malaga finished halfway through the table.

His form in Andalucia had attracted attention in Madrid and Catalonia, where Barcelona had made an interest in him last summer after bursting out in the first team of Malaga in 2023.

They did an opening of € 3 million last summer, but Cordero did not want to make the move because he only expected to play in the reserve team.

However, a final decision has now been made, after he had chosen a renewal offer from Malaga, to go to Premier League -side Newcastle United.

According to reports from the Newcastle Chronicle, Cordero has signed a deal to become a member of Eddie Howe in June, when his Malaga contract ends.

It is said that the Tyneside agreement until 2030 is like a demonstration of the long -term facility in him in him.

Newcastle is sure that you add UEFA Champions League qualification to the list of pull factors for Cordero if they can seal a top five -place during the last weekend of the Interior Season on 25 May.

Cordero has played the majority of his action for Malaga on the right side of a midfield, but he can be pushed forward in a front three, as part of How's plans.

He will not be thrown directly into the Newcastle team because Howe seems to manage his acclimatization to English football.

Harvey Barnes, Anthony Gordon and Jacob Murphy are the most important options of Howe in the role that is currently.

Callum Wilson is expected to leave the club in the coming weeks, but Howe is willing to fight offers for Talisman Alexander Isak.
