Newcastle United will say goodbye to highly-rated backroom member Mark Leyland at the end of the season after Manchester City lured him to the Etihad Stadium.
Leyland, United's coaching analyst, was signed from Liverpool 14 months ago and has been a big factor behind the club's rise to the Champions League places. Yet he will not join Pep Guardiola and City until the end of the current campaign.
The former Everton and Burnley man first worked with Eddie Howe at Turf Moor but has opted for pastures new later this year. Speaking about Leyland, Howe said earlier this season: "Mark has had a big impact. He's played a huge part in what we've done this season.
