NEWCASTLE have agreed a deal to sign Harrison Ashby from West Ham, according to reports.
The Magpies have been on the hunt for a new right-back to provide cover for Kieran Trippier – who recently signed a new contract at the club.
Having thus far failed to land Real Valladolid's Ivan Fresneda, transfer guru Dan Ashworth has since turned to the West Ham youngster.
And according to Sky Sports' Dharmesh Sheth, Newcastle have agreed a £3million fee for his transfer.
Sheth reports the figure includes potential add-ons.
Ashby has made just seven appearances for West Ham's senior team, including one in the Europa Conference League and another in the qualifiers for the competition.
