Dan Ashworth has been officially appointed as Newcastle United's Sporting Director. The 51 year-old will now proceed to shape the club's transfer business this summer, with several players linked with moves to St. James' Park.
Moussa Diaby was one of the first names to emerge. The Bayer Leverkusen forward appears to be an exciting talent and upon inspection of his skill set, he would surely aid the Toon 's prospects in the Premier League next season.
The Frenchman initially developed as an academy graduate at Paris Saint-Germain but as a result of their glamorous transfer policy, his opportunities in his homeland were limited. He posted just 10 starts in Ligue 1 before his club allowed him to leave for as little as £13m in 2019.
