Newcastle United official announcement<\/a> \u2013 17 August 2025:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Newcastle United have completed the signing of attacking midfielder Jacob Ramsey from Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee.<\/em><\/p>\n

The 24-year-old becomes the Magpies\u2019 fourth first team addition of the summer after penning a long-term deal at St. James\u2019 Park.<\/em><\/p>\n

Jacob progressed through the academy ranks at Villa Park and went on to make 167 appearances in all competitions, scoring 17 times, after making his senior debut in 2019. Ten of those appearances came in the UEFA Champions League last season.<\/em><\/p>\n

The midfielder has also represented England through the age groups and was part of the 2023 UEFA European Under-21 Championships-winning squad alongside new teammate Anthony Gordon.<\/em><\/p>\n

Jacob will wear the number 41 shirt for Newcastle United this season.<\/em><\/p>\n

After signing for the club, Jacob said: \u201cI\u2019m delighted to be here. It\u2019s been a mad two or three days, but I\u2019m really happy to be here and I can\u2019t wait to get started.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a big move for me, but as soon as I knew the gaffer was interested and really liked me, it didn\u2019t take much time to decide. His track record of developing players, especially those who have gone on to become internationals here, speaks for itself.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was always a tough game playing for Villa against Newcastle \u2013 the team is full of energy, so athletic and the fans are so passionate. I feel my game will suit that and I\u2019m excited to be on the other end of it now.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Head Coach Eddie Howe said: \u201cJacob is another fantastic addition to our squad. His qualities will bring us something different on the pitch and he fits the profile of being young and hungry to develop, but also with a wealth of Premier League football under his belt.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cJacob offers versatility and his directness in attack and has proven to be a real threat at this level in recent seasons. He performed very well in the Champions League last season too and we believe he\u2019ll be a major asset for us.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
