Xisco leaves Newcastle

By Steph Clark, Sports Reporter
NEWCASTLE UNITED have terminated Spanish striker Xisco's contract by mutual consent.
Xisco joined the Magpies in September 2008 from Deportivo La Coruna in a deal worth £5.7m, but the striker has barely featured during his four-and-half-year spell on Tyneside making just nine appearances and scoring once.
The 26-year-old has spent the majority of his Newcastle career on loan with spells at Racing Santander and Deportivo.
His last competitive appearance for the Magpies came as a substitute in the 6-0 win over Aston Villa in August 2010.
He is now expected to sign an 18-month contract with Spanish side Cordoba.
