NEWCASTLE youngster Adam Armstrong has signed a new four-year deal which will keep him at St James’ Park until 2020.

The 19-year-old striker, who was today called up for the England Under-20 squad ahead of next month’s friendly with Brazil, is expected to join a Championship club on loan before next Wednesday’s transfer deadline.

Armstrong said: “I’m over the moon. I’ve been working hard on the training pitch and I did well last season, so to get the reward is massive for me and I think it’s the next step.

“I went on loan last season, and for me to come back here and extend my contract is brilliant for me and for my family. I’ll keep working hard every day and progress.”
