Yankuba Minteh has already declared he is 'ready to take the next step' as Newcastle United complete their first summer signing. The Magpies have signed the highly-rated winger from Odense Boldklub, and he will now join Feyenoord on loan.
Minteh only joined the Danish side a year ago from Steve Biko in his native Gambia, but the 18-year-old has enjoyed a fine debut season. The winger has registered six goals and four assists in 17 senior appearances for the club, but has been left out of the squad for Saturday's clash with FC Midtjylland.
The acquisition helps to fulfill the remit outlined by sporting director Dan Ashworth earlier this year of adding to Newcastle's 'depth of talent'
