We have worked hard to get him ahead of other clubs, so I’m delighted with what we’ve done. Along with Nabil Bentaleb, he’ll give us strong options.” Algeria midfielder Bentaleb’s signing, on loan from Bundesliga side Schalke, was announced on Tuesday as Newcastle’s first signing of the January transfer window. Newcastle are 14th in the league and have a long list of players who are out injured.
