Manchester City have poached Newcastle coaching analyst Mark Leyland, just 14 months after he joined the Magpies from Liverpool.
Leyland had spent nine years at Anfield, working for his boyhood club, having previously had spells with Everton and Burnley. He was part of the backroom staff which attempted to help the Reds battle City for numerous Premier League titles.
But now he will jump to the other side of that battle when he moves to the Etihad Stadium at the end of the season. Leyland has helped Newcastle to launch a surprise challenge for a top four place and reach the final of the Carabao Cup.
