17-year-old centre-back Charlie McArthur follows Alex Murphy, Matt Targett, Nick Pope, Sven Botman and Jordan Hackett through the door.

Like Murphy and Hackett, McArthur will join up with Newcastle’s academy side ahead of the new season.

McArthur joins from newly-promoted Scottish Premiership side Kilmarnock, subject to international clearance. The Magpies agreed personal terms with the Scotland Under-17 captain last month.
