Newcastle have reopened compensation talks with Brighton for sporting director Dan Ashworth.

The Daily Mail says Ashworth could arrive as Newcastle's sporting director in time for the summer transfer window after negotiations with Brighton reopened.

The Seagulls were demanding £5million to release the 51-year-old from gardening leave after he stood down as their technical director in February.

It looked as if Newcastle would be made to wait until Ashworth's notice period expired in November after talks between the clubs ground to a halt.

But discussions are said to have resumed and there is hope among all parties of a resolution being found.
