Amalfitano Cannot Wait For Toon Debut

Romain Amalfitano is keen to kick off his career at Newcastle United - after joining the Magpies' French revolution. Amalfitano was yesterday unveiled at St James' Park after signing a three-year deal. The 22-year-old, a technically-gifted player who can play on the right flank and in central midfield, is Alan Pardew’s first summer signing. Amalfitano joins on a free transfer, and he will officially become a Newcastle player when his deal at Reims, where he had spent the past two seasons, expires on June 30. Amalfitano: “I am very happy to be a Newcastle player. “I have seen a bit of the city already, and it is a change from France, but one I am really looking forward to. “When a club like Newcastle wants you to play for them, it can only be a good thing. “I have taken the opportunity to play in the Premier League, and cannot wait to get going.”
