Ewen Jaouen, Newcastle United, Stade de Reims
10 June 2026
Newcastle United are completing a deal worth about £18.5 million for Stade de Reims goalkeeper Ewen Jaouen. The 20-year-old has never played top-flight football but is viewed as a high-upside modern goalkeeper with rare physical tools.
Former Chelsea goalkeeping coach Christophe Lollichon praised Jaouen’s height, calmness and room for growth, comparing his profile to a young Thibaut Courtois. Newcastle are expected to protect him early while he adapts to Premier League intensity.
