Newcastle confirm first summer signing after pipping Barcelona, Real Madrid and Porto to Spanish wonderkid
NEWCASTLE have confirmed the signing of Spanish wonderkid Antonio Cordero.

Cordero said: "It's truly an honour to be here, truly a pleasure. I am a person who likes to aspire high. Why not come to one of the best places in the world to do it. 'It's a big step, and that's one of the reasons I'm here. I'm happy to do it and have a great desire to get going already.'

‘It was supposed to stay confidential' – Rory McIlroy ‘p***ed off' after private information is leaked
RORY McILROY was 'p***ed off' that news of his driver failing technical standards was leaked at last month's USPGA Championship. Two days before the tournament, the club was pulled from his bag after official testing showed it crossed the 'trampoline effect' threshold — when the club face becomes more springy. 2 Rory McIlroy admitted he was frustrated that news of his driver failing a technical test was leaked Credit: Getty 2 Scottie Scheffler's driver also failed Credit: Getty Failures are supposed to be confidential with no blame attached to the player but the news broke on the Friday evening. World No 1 Masters champ Ahead of teeing up in the Canadian Open, which starts today, the Northern Irishman said: 'I was a little p***ed off because I knew that Scottie's driver had failed but my name was the one that was leaked. It was supposed to stay confidential. READ MORE ON GOLF 'I didn't want to get up there and say something that I regretted, either, because I'm trying to protect Scottie, I don't want to mention his name.' He went on to add: "I'm trying to protect TaylorMade. I'm trying to protect the USGA, PGA of America, myself. I just didn't want to get up there and say something that I regretted. "With Scottie's stuff, that's not my information to share. I knew that that had happened, but that's not on me to share that, and I felt that process is supposed to be kept confidential, and it wasn't for whatever reason. That's why I was pretty annoyed at that. "From a responsibility standpoint, look, I understand, but if we all wanted to, we could all bypass you guys and we could just go on this and we could go on social media and we could talk about our round and do it our own way.

So I understand that. "But again, I've been beating this drum for a long time. If they want to make it mandatory, that's fine, but in our rules it says that it's not, and until the day that that's maybe written into the regulations, you're going to have guys skip from time to time, and that's well within our rights."

He finished at 11-under 273, five strokes clear of the field in Charlotte.
