Newcastle United 'set to' sign former Arsenal attacker

Mavididi linked up with the club earlier this year after being released by Arsenal

The 16-year-old has agreed a two-year scholarship which will be converted into a professional deal, according to Football Insider.

Mavividi – who can play as a forward or winger – is the younger brother of 22-year-old Montpellier striker Stephy.

Meanwhile, Newcastle are set to sign 19-year-old out-of-contract Liverpool defender Remi Savage this summer.
