DONE DEAL: Newcastle signing Minteh excited joining Feyenoord

Newcastle United signing Yankuba Minteh has completed his move to Feyenoord.

The Gambian youngster signed for Newcastle last week from Odense and has joined the Eredivisie champions on-loan for the season.

Minteh said: "I'm looking forward to playing for the reigning national champion. "It is an honor to wear the Feyenoord shirt. I am grateful for this opportunity and will do everything I can to improve as a footballer.

"I am sure that Feyenoord will help me achieve my goals - just as I am convinced that I can in turn help Feyenoord in its sporting ambitions."

Toon sporting director Dan Ashworth said yesterday: "We look forward to working with him in this exciting phase of his development, and we're excited to see how he performs at Feyenoord, a club that also has a strong development record of its own."
