DONE DEAL: Former Arsenal defender Carl Jenkinson signs with Newcastle Jets

Jenkinson expressed his relief, stating "I'm thrilled that everything has been resolved now," during an interview with the League Two club's website.

"It's a great group of lads and it's nice to step into their environment to be honest, something I want to do is help the club from this point onwards so they can progress.

"I'll give my all to the club and the gaffer - it was a fantastic achievement for the lads to get promoted last year but the club wants to push on again now and that was a nice selling point for me."
