Newcastle United CEO Darren Eales has made it clear that the Magpies will be building a new training ground in the years ahead.
A move from Benton - which has been the home of United since the early noughties - is on the cards once the club decide exactly where they want to start building with Gosforth Park already mooted as a new destination. The long-term plan is to house the first-team, Academy and women's team all under the same roof.
And since Eales has arrived on the scene he has been impressed by the way Newcastle's owners have gone about their business. Eales said: "There have been so many building blocks they’ve already put in place, which is just incredible. There’s been so many great things that have happened.
