Ajax competing with Spanish and German sides to sign Newcastle United winger on loan | OneFootball

Ben Jacobs is reporting that Ajax are looking into the possibility of bringing Newcastle United winger Antonio Cordero on loan to Amsterdam next season. The Spanish teenager also has options to play in both Spain and Germany next season. Whether or not the lure of the Eredivisie will be enough for Ajax to win the race remains to be seen, but Jacobs is confident that Newcastle will be loaning Cordero out for the 2025/2026 campaign.

Cordero will join the Magpies in the summer from Spanish second tier side Malaga. During the 2024/2025 season the Spanish youth international played 40 games in all competitions for the side, scoring six goals and providing six assists. Clearly Newcastle see the player as one for the future, but also a player that could benefit from playing senior football and not just playing for the sides reserves. Ajax will certainly give him a great chance to play at the top level of Dutch football, compete for trophies and experience Champions League football. It has not yet been revealed which sides in Germany or Spain are also interested in Cordero.
