Joselu leaves Newcastle for Alaves

Joselu has left Newcastle to join Alaves, the Premier League club announced on Monday afternoon.

The 29-year-old moved to St. James’ Park from Stoke in 2017 but found first-team opportunities hard to come by.

While he had fallen down the pecking order at Newcastle, Joselu’s departure means further depletion to the attacking options available to the new manager.

Salomon Rondon was the club’s player of the season last year but was on loan from West Brom, while Ayoze Perez has been sold to Leicester.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
