OFFICIAL: Ivory Coast winger Bazoumana Touré joins Newcastle United

Newcastle United have completed the signing of exciting Ivorian winger Bazoumana Touré from TSG Hoffenheim, securing the highly-rated attacker on a long-term contract ahead of the new season.

The 20-year-old completed his move to the Magpies on Sunday, July 5, 2026, bringing an end to his spell in the Bundesliga as he embarks on a new challenge in the English Premier League.

Touré arrives in England as one of Ivory Coast’s brightest young talents. The pacey left-winger further enhanced his growing reputation after representing the Elephants at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where he showcased his attacking quality, confidence on the ball and ability to trouble defenders at the highest level.

His move to Newcastle reflects the club’s continued commitment to investing in emerging talent capable of developing into top-class performers while strengthening the squad for both domestic and European competitions.

Known for his explosive acceleration, direct style of play and excellent dribbling ability, Touré is comfortable operating from the left flank, where he enjoys taking on defenders before cutting inside to create scoring opportunities or provide decisive passes for teammates. His versatility also allows him to feature across the front line when required.

After making a positive impression during his time with Hoffenheim, Touré now has the opportunity to test himself in one of the world’s most competitive leagues. The Premier League presents a significant step in his career, but Newcastle believe the young winger possesses the attributes needed to thrive in English football.

For Touré, the transfer marks another major milestone in what has been a rapid rise. From establishing himself in Germany to earning international recognition with Ivory Coast and now joining one of England’s ambitious clubs, the winger continues to make steady progress in his development.

Newcastle supporters will be eager to see the Ivorian in action as preparations begin for the new campaign. His arrival adds greater pace, creativity and attacking depth to the Magpies’ squad, while also providing manager Eddie Howe with another exciting option in the final third.

With his long-term future now secured at Newcastle United, Bazoumana Touré will be aiming to make an immediate impact in the Premier League and continue his upward trajectory as one of Africa’s most promising young footballers.
