Newport County have secured the services of Ghanaian forward Nathan Opoku on loan from Leicester City until 31 December 2025, subject to EFL approval and international clearance.

The 24-year-old arrives with a reputation as a prolific goalscorer from his time in the United States collegiate system and valuable professional experience in Europe.

Opoku first rose to prominence at Lindsey Wilson College, where he scored 19 goals in 19 appearances before moving to Syracuse University.

His impact was immediate, netting 11 goals and registering 8 assists in 25 games while helping Syracuse clinch the NCAA Division National Championship.
