Last summer, Newcastle United signed Antonio Cordero on a free transfer and sent him on loan at KVC Westerlo.
The winger has been limited to 98 minutes from seven matches in Belgium and this obviously hasn’t pleased the Magpies.
Earlier this month, Radio Marca reported Newcastle United are considering terminating his loan deal in the winter market.
On Thursday, Cadena Ser stated Deportivo de La Coruña are keen on taking the 19-year-old on loan in January. This has been backed up by other sources in Spain.
Cope reports the Segunda División side are intensifying their efforts to sign Cordero and are ‘very keen’ on reaching an agreement with Newcastle United.
La Opinión A Coruña, a newspaper local to the Spanish club, relays that and provides their own updates.
It’s claimed Deportivo’s priority is to strengthen their defence while they are also looking at market opportunities. This is where the Newcastle United player fits in as the belief is his addition could improve their attack.
According to the newspaper, Deportivo are looking to sign the Spain U19 international on loan without an option or obligation to buy. The report adds they are open to other formulas that may come up during the negotiations. Essentially, it sounds like they want him for free for the second half of the season.
La Opinión A Coruña claims it’s ‘not a simple deal’ as Deportivo have to find an agreement with Eddie Howe’s side and Cordero.
