They will pay an initial £52m guaranteed and a potential £3m more in performance-related add-ons.
Elanga scored six goals and recorded 11 assists in the Premier League last season for Nottingham Forest and was a key figure as the club secured European football for the coming campaign.
Elanga will be the second winger Newcastle have signed this summer, after Spain youngster Antonio Cordero joined on a free transfer from Malaga, although the 18-year-old is set to go out on loan.
Newcastle launched an offer late last week for Elanga and discussions since are understood to have centred on the structure of the payments.
