Newcastle set to sanction third loan move if Dan Ashworth secures £25m man - Report

According to Mark Douglas at the ipaper, Newcastle will send Harrison Ashby out on loan if the club are successful in their pursuit of Southampton right-back Tino Livramento.

Douglas reports that a host of Championship sides have enquired about his availability, aware of the fact he could be loaned out should another right-back arrive on Tyneside.

It's thought talks are ongoing over Livramento, with Dan Ashworth a big fan of the 20-year-old and leading the pursuit after showing previous interest during his time at Brighton.

Eddie Howe has already confirmed that Garang Kuol will head out on loan following a tough spell at Hearts, while new recruit Yankuba Minteh has already sealed a season-long switch to Dutch giants Feyenoord.

Now, it seems Ashby - who arrived from West Ham earlier this year - could be the latest Toon talent to spend a season elsewhere to hand him some much needed game time at senior level.

The 21-year-old struggled with a reoccurring injury after signing, but featured in two of our U21 games in April, bagging a goal and an assist in our 4-3 win over Norwich and playing the full 90 as our we beat Derby 4-1.
