Newcastle United has signed England goalkeeper Nick Pope from relegated Burnley for an undisclosed fee.

The 30-year-old moves to St James’ Park on a four-year contract after spending six seasons at Turf Moor.

Magpies boss Eddie Howe called Pope “an exceptional Premier League and international-level goalkeeper”.

“I’m very pleased to be adding strong competition to a very important position,” Howe added.

Pope joined Burnley in 2016 when the club was newly promoted to the top flight and made 155 appearances, including playing 36 times last season.
