Newcastle United complete the signing of Bazoumana Toure from Bundesliga club Hoffenheim, adding a left-sided attacking option to their squad. Multiple outlets identify the 20-year-old winger as an Ivory Coast international and report that Newcastle agree to a fee of about £42 million (reported as $56 million). The move comes as Newcastle look to strengthen following interest in other forwards; they are reported to have missed out on Victor Munoz and to have lost the pursuit of Munoz to Liverpool. One report frames the signing as a replacement for Anthony Gordon, who has left Newcastle. Toure is described as Newcastle’s second signing of the summer, following the arrival of Ewen Jaouen from Reims. The reports collectively indicate that Newcastle move to bolster their attacking depth and left-wing options ahead of the new season, with Hoffenheim receiving the transfer fee as agreed between the clubs.
