Brighton have signed Gambia winger Yankuba Minteh from Newcastle United for \u00a330m.<\/b><\/p>\n
Newcastle wanted to make at least one major sale by the end of June to avoid the possibility of breaking Premier League profit and sustainability regulations.<\/p>\n
The Premier League clubs announced the Minteh deal, external<\/span><\/a> at 0050 BST on 1 July, and the Magpies have also sold Elliot Anderson to Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n The 19-year-old forward has signed a contract until June 2029 with the Seagulls.<\/p>\n “Yankuba is a young talent that has attracted a lot of interest, so we’re delighted to welcome him to the club,” said Brighton technical director David Weir. <\/p>\n Newcastle signed Minteh from Danish club Odense in June 2023 but he did not make a first-team appearance for the Magpies.<\/p>\n He spent last season on loan at Dutch club Feyenoord, scoring 10 goals in 27 league games while also finding the net against Celtic in the Champions League.<\/p>\n “He is an exciting attacking player with incredible speed. He had a very impressive campaign with Feyenoord, gaining experience in both the Champions League and Europa League,” added Weir.<\/p>\n “Now we will give him the time and support he needs to ensure that he settles in.”<\/p>\n Minteh has three goals in seven appearances for Gambia.<\/p>\n “Newcastle United extends its best wishes to Yankuba for the future,” said a statement, external<\/span><\/a> from the Tyneside club.<\/p>\n Visit our <\/i>transfers page<\/i><\/a> for a full list of the summer’s deals.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
