West Ham United favourite Harrison Ashby has dropped a hint over a potential move to Newcastle with his social media activity following shock transfer links.
The Daily Mail has reported that Newcastle will bid £2.5m for Ashby before the transfer window closes on Thursday, which has been prompted by a long-term injury to right-back, Emil Krafth.
Following this unforeseen update, Ashby has appeared to put fuel on the fire, with eagle-eyed West Ham fans spotting his recent social media activity.
Ashby has started following two Newcastle players on Instagram – Kieran Trippier and his Scotland teammate, Elliot Anderson.
The 20-year-old then liked a Twitter post from Anderson about Newcastle’s 1-1 draw with Wolves, in which he featured, which has left Hammers fans worried about a transfer.
The right-back has shown great promise during first-team appearances over the last couple of seasons in a West Ham shirt and many fans will not want to see him leave. This activity could hint that the youngster wants a move away from the London stadium or it could just be a coincidence and mean absolutely nothing.
