They will also face competition from the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/2025\/02\/fc-barcelona-want-to-sign-the-crystal-palace-star-good-deal\/\">Barcelona<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/2025\/02\/manchester-city-vs-real-madrid-tactical-preview-team-news-key-men-and-streaming-links-2\/\">Real Madrid<\/a> for the services of the player. There are talks in progress for a pre-contract agreement with the player.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Newcastle United want to sign Antonio Cordero<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The player has scored four goals and provided six assists in the 25 matches that he has played so far across competitions, which is quite a good enough stat given his age. He is celebrated for his versatility and dynamism. Capable of playing on either wing or as an inside forward, he\u2019s known for his pace, acceleration, and excellent ball control.<\/p>\n<p>His ability to use both feet for crossing and dribbling adds to his predictability on the pitch. Cordero\u2019s tactical intelligence, combined with his bravery and work rate, make him a standout prospect. His potential is highlighted by his early achievements in Segunda Divisi\u00f3n. Therefore, the Magpies want to sign the player where he can grow to become one of the best players in the team.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_319901\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-319901\"><img data-lazyloaded=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/newcastle-united-v-arsenal-carabao-cup-semi-final-second-leg-1-1-1024x706.jpg\" alt=\"Eddie Howe Newcastle United\" width=\"1024\" height=\"706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/newcastle-united-v-arsenal-carabao-cup-semi-final-second-leg-1-1-1024x706.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/newcastle-united-v-arsenal-carabao-cup-semi-final-second-leg-1-1-300x207.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/newcastle-united-v-arsenal-carabao-cup-semi-final-second-leg-1-1-768x529.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/newcastle-united-v-arsenal-carabao-cup-semi-final-second-leg-1-1-750x517.jpg 750w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/newcastle-united-v-arsenal-carabao-cup-semi-final-second-leg-1-1-1140x786.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/newcastle-united-v-arsenal-carabao-cup-semi-final-second-leg-1-1.jpg 1500w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-319901\">NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, ENGLAND \u2013 FEBRUARY 05: Eddie Howe, Manager of Newcastle United, celebrates victory following the Carabao Cup Semi Final Second Leg match between Newcastle United and Arsenal at St James\u2019 Park on February 05, 2025 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England.

Hence, they are in the race for Cordero. However, the report has clearly stated that Newcastle United are in very advanced talks for a pre-contract agreement with the player and hence are sure to beat the competition from the two La Liga giants.<\/p>\n<p>The Magpies will hope that they can close the deal soon given that it is not easy to fend off interest from Barcelona and Real Madrid. The player can also receive better chances of playing regularly in a club like Newcastle United than at Barcelona or Real Madrid. Now, it just remains to be seen if the Magpies can go on to get the deal done as soon as possible or not.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><img data-lazyloaded=\"1\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" src=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4f604fb4-bc97-4f0e-99f7-ae0e2b8f1b46-96x96.jpeg\" alt=\"Rohit Sarkar\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4f604fb4-bc97-4f0e-99f7-ae0e2b8f1b46-96x96.jpeg 96w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4f604fb4-bc97-4f0e-99f7-ae0e2b8f1b46-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4f604fb4-bc97-4f0e-99f7-ae0e2b8f1b46-24x24.jpeg 24w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4f604fb4-bc97-4f0e-99f7-ae0e2b8f1b46-48x48.jpeg 48w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4f604fb4-bc97-4f0e-99f7-ae0e2b8f1b46-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4f604fb4-bc97-4f0e-99f7-ae0e2b8f1b46-75x75.jpeg 75w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/4f604fb4-bc97-4f0e-99f7-ae0e2b8f1b46-350x350.jpeg 350w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 80px) 100vw, 80px\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<h3> <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/author\/rohit\/\"> Rohit Sarkar\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/h3>\n<p> Rohit Sarkar is a passionate journalist with a deep love for football and cricket.
