Newcastle United left-back Jamal Lewis has completed a loan move until the end of the season to Brazilian giants Sao Paulo.
The 26-year-old, who joined the Magpies in 2020 for £15m from Norwich, is the first British player to sign for the famous Brazilian club.
“When I found out about this opportunity, I immediately told my manager that I would like to come to Brazil,” Lewis told the Sao Paulo website.
“It’s an honour to play for a giant like Sao Paulo and to be the first British athlete in the club’s history. I’m very excited to play for a three-time world champion club. It’s an opportunity I couldn’t pass up.”
Lewis will now join up with Northern Ireland for their upcoming Nations League fixtures against Luxembourg and Bulgaria.
