Newcastle United confirmed that they have handed Dwight Gayle over to Stoke City on a permanent deal.
They praised him on Twitter saying: “We would like to thank @dwightgayle for his contribution to Newcastle United over the past six years and wish him all the very best for the future.”

The former Crystal Palace forward boasts an impressive record at Championship level, having scored 59 times in 100 second-tier appearances.

One of the most recent is Strasbourg striker Ludovic Ajorque:
