Dwight Gayle has signed on the dotted line for Stoke City with the striker bringing the curtain down on his time at St James' Park.
The 32-year-old departs on a permanent deal with Newcastle able to negotiate a deal with the Potters despite the experienced forward having two years left on his current deal. Gayle has been told to train with the Under-21 team after barely featured last season.
Gayle, who has signed a two-year contract with Stoke, said: “I’m buzzing to be here and I can’t wait to get started now. There were a few parties that were interested but for me it was about finding a club that was right for me and after speaking to the gaffer and the coaches I heard everything I wanted to hear.”
