Newcastle United youngsters spotted in training ahead of this weekend’s Premier League clash against West Ham United.

Alfie Harrison has trained with Newcastle United’s first team this week, despite preparing to leave this summer.

There was much excitement when the forward joined from Manchester City in January 2024 but two-and-a-half years on, he is yet to make a competitive first-team appearance.

Harrison has appeared in a handful of pre-season friendlies in the last two summers, including against Atletico Madrid in the Sela Cup last August, but outside of that has regularly featured for under-21s.

The 20-year-old is out of contract this summer and is therefore expected to leave, with clubs in the EFL and Scotland set to register their interest.

Departing Newcastle United star spotted in training

But until then, Harrison has gone about his business normally at Newcastle and in the build-up to Sunday’s Premier League clash at home to West Ham United was pictured in first-team training.

Harrison was spotted in the background of photos uploaded to Instagram by Joe Willock and Kieran Trippier.

Trippier has already announced he will be leaving Newcastle when his contract expires in June, with fan group Wor Flags set to pay tribute to the 35-year-old at this weekend’s home match against West Ham.

Willock, meanwhile, could also depart as he enters the final year of his contract. Fulham reportedly had a £20million bid rejected for the midfielder in January.

Harrison wasn’t the only youngster captured in training. There were calls up for summer signing Park Seung-soo and goalkeeper Aidan Harris, while Alex Murphy, Leo Shahar and Sean Neave were also pictured, though the trip have trained regularly with Howe’s squad this term.
