Swansea chase a loan deal for Newcastle right-back Harrison Ashby, after youngster struggled for minutes behind Kieran Trippier since joining from West Ham in January

Newcastle United right-back Harrison Ashby is wanted on loan by Swansea City, who also want Brighton goalkeeper Carl Rushworth and Rotherham defender Cameron Humphreys.

Ashby only joined Newcastle in January but the 21-year-old has found minutes hard to come by.

Despite joining from West Ham as a deputy for Kieran Trippier, he has not made a competitive appearance for the Magpies.

He has featured multiple times in pre-season and scored the winner on his debut in a 2-1 win over Rangers in July.

Earlier in the summer, Mail Sport identified Ashby as one of the exciting players to watch learning their trade with the Premier League's chasing pack.
