Newcastle on verge of completing deal with Wolverhampton for youngster Leo Shahar, according to Shields Gazette.
The right-back will join the Tyneside club after negotiations with Newcastle and the England Under-16 international were successful.
The 16-year-old is highly regarded by Wolves and played frequently for the team’s Under-18s squad last season, tallying two goals in 15 league outings.
For the 2023–24 season, Shahar will join Newcastle’s Under-18 team. He will come after the recent additions to the school of Sam Alabi from Oldham Athletic and Michael Mills from Port Vale.
