Gloucester have agreed a deal to sign Newcastle full-back Ben Redshaw for the 2025-26 Premiership Rugby season.
The 20-year-old England youth international made his Newcastle debut early last season and has played eight Premiership games this season.
He was part of the England Under-20s side that won the Under 20 World Cup last year and also spent time at the England senior side's pre-World Cup training camp in 2023.
"Ben is a great signing for us; he is one of the most highly rated young players in the country and widely regarded as a future first-team international," Gloucester director of rugby George Skivington said.
"He's got all the physical attributes you want from a back-three player, and I'm sure he'll fit perfectly into the game model that we are trying to play."
However, Redshaw is the latest homegrown departure at troubled Newcastle.
The Premiership's bottom side, who are searching for new ownership, have already lost winger Max Pepper to Bristol Bears for next season, while Adam Radwan left for Leicester Tigers in mid-season.
