Chelsea winger Kenedy has completed his Newcastle medical ahead of a season-long loan deal to the club, according to Sky Sports.

Kenedy joined Newcastle on loan in January, scoring two goals in 13 appearances to help Rafa Benitez’s side retain their place in the Premier League.

His impressive performances for Newcastle during his loan spell last season prompted the club to come back in for him.

It isn’t known if there is an option to buy in the loan deal taking the Brazilian winger to Newcastle.
