Newcastle sign Georgian teenager Salia
Newcastle United have agreed a deal for teenage Georgian forward Vakhtang Salia from Dinamo Tbilisi and he will join the Premier League club when he turns 18 in August 2025.
Salia has represented his country at under-21 level.
Sporting director Paul Mitchell said: "Scouting and recruiting emerging talent is an essential part of building a sustainable future, particularly within the current PSR framework, so the market is fiercely competitive.
"We continue to scout extensively, both domestically and overseas, with a view to securing players who can come through our talent pathway and, ideally, become part of the first team in future."
