Newcastle United have signed England midfielder Harvey Barnes from Leicester City for an undisclosed fee.
The 25-year-old, who has been capped once by England, has signed a five-year contract with the Magpies.
He is the club’s third signing of the summer following the arrivals of forward Yankuba Minteh and Italian international midfielder Sandro Tonali.
“I think it’s an attacker’s dream to come into a team like this,” Barnes said.
“I’m delighted. It’s an amazing club and for me it’s a massive opportunity to come and be involved in a successful team that’s doing exciting things, so I’m absolutely buzzing to be here.”
Newcastle finished fourth in the Premier League last season and in 2023-24 will be playing in the Champions League for the first time since 2003-04.
