Newcastle United have announced the signing of Nottingham Forest pair Jamaal Lascelles and Karl Darlow.
Centre-back Lascelles, 20, and goalkeeper Darlow, 23, will be loaned back to Forest this season with their wages being picked up by Newcastle.
Lascelles said: "As soon as I found out about the move I was over the moon. It's a huge step up for me. Newcastle are a club with a massive fanbase, a big history and an unbelievable stadium.
"First, I am going back to Forest for another season and that will be great for my development.
"Hopefully I can come here next summer an even better player."
Darlow said: "I'm delighted for it all to be sorted and I can't wait to get started here at Newcastle.
"The loan back is going to be another year but it gives me time to develop my game further before I return. I'm looking forward to the future."
