Newcastle had defeated Everton 4-1 before Christmas and despite their injury woes are carrying on in style. Again, Cordero was considered inexperienced for the premier league and they wanted him to stay out on loan to gain first team experience.
Cordero joined Newcastle United in July 2025 and immediately loaned to KVC Westerlo for the 2025-2026 season for development. He plays primarily a right-footed left winger known for his technical ability, dribbling skills, and goal instinct. He also represented Spain at the U18 and U19 levels.
