Newcastle United's grand plan is still to build a brand new training centre on par with Manchester City, Liverpool and Leicester.
United sources have confirmed to Chronicle Live that the plans submitted to North Tyneside Council are very much to ensure that the facilities are up to scratch in the short-term. But the long-term plans are for Amanda Staveley and co to bring one of the best training grounds in Europe to the region.
A United source said: "The plan is still to move to a new training ground moving forward."
