Newcastle United are set to revamp their scouting operations at Academy level with a host of key appointments. United secured sporting director Dan Ashworth from Brighton & Hove Albion last summer but his long-term plan is now beginning to take shape.
Having appointed Man City's Paul Midgley as head of youth recruitment the club are now looking to flesh out the rest of their talent spotting unit across the country. The Magpies have struggled at Under-21 level this season and now have an eye on what happens in the long-term future.
In what is described as an "exciting time" for Newcastle they will look to appoint a new Head of emerging talent as the club look to improve recruitment at the Academy.
