Dickson was Man Utd's lead academy analyst for five years and has also worked at Leicester City and Hibernian, bringing over eight years of experience working within football analytics to Eddie How's backroom staff.
Wilson spotted with former Toon target
Elsewhere, Newcastle fans have picked up on an Instagram post from Copenhagen wonderkid Roony Bardghji, showing the teenage winger playing some head tennis with our very own Callum Wilson.
The pair are recovering from recent injuries, but it's an intriguing link up given Bardghji has been tipped to join Newcastle in the past, with reports last November claiming that we sent scouts to watch the Swede in Champions League action during the 2023/24 campaign.
Since then, the 18-year-old has suffered an ACL injury, but he's closing in on a comeback and may be one to watch as we continue our search for some of the world's top U21 talent. If he's made a full recovery, 2025 could be our chance to pounce on the right-winger who had attracted interest from some of Europe's elite prior to his injury.
