Newcastle United signs Amar Dedic and Ousmane Diabate

Overview

Newcastle United has completed the signing of Bosnian international defender Amar Dedic from Benfica. The 24-year-old has signed a five-year contract, tying him to the club until 2031, with the transfer fee reported to be approximately £29.5 million to £35 million (€34.5 million to €35.9 million).

Dedic, who will wear the number 37 shirt, reunites with manager Matthias Jaissle, having previously worked together at FC Liefering and Red Bull Salzburg. The move is intended to provide depth in the full-back positions following the departure of Kieran Trippier and an injury to Tino Livramento.

In a further move to strengthen the squad, Newcastle has also secured the signing of 18-year-old Guinean midfielder Ousmane Diabate from Gençlerbirliği. Diabate has agreed to a 4+1 year contract but will remain at the Turkish club on loan for one year to continue his development. The agreement includes a mid-season recall clause and performance-based bonuses for Gençlerbirliği.

As the club continues to reshape its squad under Jaissle, Newcastle remains linked to other midfield targets, including RB Leipzig’s Nicolas Seiwald and Tottenham’s Lucas Bergvall.
