Newcastle have completed deal to sign Spanish Antonio Cordero

IKEJA, Nigeria - April 17, 2025 - PRLog -- Antonio José Cordero Campillo, sometimes known as Antoñito, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Malaga CF. Antonio Cordero is a promising 18-year-old Spanish football talent recently signed by Newcastle United, beating out competition from top clubs like Barcelona and Real Madrid. Newcastle's acquisition highlights their strategic investment in young talents, securing Cordero from Malaga where he previously showcased his potential.

Newcastle United have won the race to sign Malaga winger Antonio Cordero this summer, it has been revealed. The 18-year-old is out of contract with the Spanish second tier side this summer and has rejected several offers of an extension ahead of sealing a move away from Malaga, who are locked in a relegation battle.

Reports of interest from Newcastle emerged back in January but Spanish heavyweights Real Madrid and Barcelona have both been credited with interest, with the Catalan giants even thought to have held an advantage due to their close ties with Cordero's agent, Pini Zahavi. There have even been claims in Spain that both Arsenal and Manchester City spoke with Cordero, but Fabrizio Romano has now named Newcastle as his next destination, with a formal announcement on his arrival expected soon.

Cordero, a Spain Under-19 international, is enjoying a breakout year with Malaga, racking up five goals and six assists for the struggling side after scoring the goal which sealed their promotion back to the second division last season.
