Yoan Gouffran confirms Newcastle United move

Yoan Gouffran has revealed that he will become a Newcastle United player "tomorrow".

Reports this afternoon claimed that the 26-year-old was travelling to Newcastle for talks with manager Alan Pardew after Bordeaux had accepted an offer from the Magpies.

While there has no been official word from either club, the striker took to Twitter this evening to confirm the move.

"Tomorrow I will be a Newcaslte player," a translation of his tweet reads.

Gouffran is believed to have previously been a transfer target of Arsenal.
