Kelly came to terms and signed a contract with Newcastle last month, with his current contract at AFC Bournemouth expiring on June 30. The 25-year-old will wear the number 25 shirt for Newcastle for the 2024-25 season.
Reflecting on his move, Kelly told the club website: “It’s amazing to be coming here. I know how big the club is and how much it means to all the fans, and I just want to hit the ground running and get to work.
