Cordero's Newcastle Dream Fades After Loan Struggles
8 May
Summary
- Antonio Cordero struggling on loan at Cadiz after Belgium spell.
- Youngster netted twice in 17 appearances for Cadiz.
- Newcastle may look for English loan or a new Spanish move.
Antonio Cordero, a 19-year-old player on loan from Newcastle United, is reportedly facing a challenging path to rejoining the Magpies' senior squad. His recent loan spell at Cadiz has fallen short of expectations, compounded by a previous unsuccessful stint with Belgian club Westerlo. During his time in Belgium, Cordero had limited opportunities, playing only 102 minutes across eight appearances without scoring or assisting.
Returning to Spain in January, Cordero joined Cadiz with the hope of regaining his form. However, he has managed only two goals in 17 matches for the Spanish second-division side, which is currently battling near the relegation zone. Spanish publication Sport suggests that Newcastle is unlikely to include him in their plans for the next season, prompting his agents to seek new opportunities for the player.
Cordero's contract with Newcastle extends until 2030. Given his recent performances, his agents may explore another move within Spain or potentially a loan spell in England. The level of his next club remains uncertain, as his impact at Cadiz has been minimal.
