Former Chelsea technical director Michael Emenalo is confident that he will be named as Newcastle United sorting director.
Emenalo was credited for star signings Kevin De Bruyne, Mohamed Salah, N'Golo Kante and Eden Hazard at Stamford Bridge.
He also brought in Juan Mata, Thibaut Courtois and Cesc Fabregas during his stint in west London.
Liverpool's Michael Edwards is a dream target on Newcastle's shortlist but has other interest.
Adviser Frank McParland may be ruled out as he has links to Phil Foden's agents, says The Sun.
