Newcastle's Amazon series to allay rival fears as rapport with Premier League 'running smoothly'

Newcastle United's upcoming Amazon Prime documentary is set to give rival Premier League clubs a closer look at the boardroom dynamics behind the scenes at St James' Park.

With Aston Villa chief executive Christian Purslow suggesting that the Premier League are looking into the way Newcastle are ran, despite no confirmation from the top-flight themselves, the inner workings at United will soon be available for all to see. It is understood that Newcastle chiefs will not have control over content in Amazon's four-part series - but leading figures at United were completely relaxed about it.

The documentary is not only focusing on the work of co-owner Amanda Staveley but will feature exclusive and unprecedented boardroom chats from key executives such as CEO Darren Eales and sporting director Dan Ashworth as well as head of recruitment Steve Nickson. Nickson has attended a clutch of recent home matches as Newcastle whittle down their summer shortlist and potential insight on transfers could come the way of fans.
