Dan Ashworth is currently on gardening leave as Man Utd try to bring him to Old Trafford
Last season, the two clubs were competing for Champions League places and both won them, with the Magpies' fourth-place finish viewed as a major over-achievement while United finishing in third was just above expectations. This season, both have slipped to seventh and eighth respectively, with managers Erik ten Hag and Eddie Howe quick to cite injuries as the prime reason for their struggles.
One of their first moves has been to hire Newcastle's Dan Ashworth as sporting director, with INEOS even willing to undergo a complex and expensive process to prise him away from St James' Park. Signing a Newcastle player, then, will hardly be the most revolutionary of moves for Ashworth to encourage. But in Bruno Guimaraes, there is a player who could transform United in the same way his partial namesake Bruno Fernandes did four-and-a-half years ago.
Eddie Howe, however, denied claims that Guimaraes was bidding farewell to the Toon Army after the full-time whistle. This is where Ashworth's pull may come in, though. Having previously worked with Guimaraes at Newcastle, you can imagine the former Brighton and England guru selling the United dream to Guimaraes.
