Ramage and Richardson join Newcastle academy coaching staff

Newcastle United are undergoing a coaching shake-up this summer.

The Daily Mail says coach Ben Dawson has now also been added permanently to manager Steve Bruce's first-team staff, alongside Graeme Jones, Steve Agnew and Stephen Clemence.

New academy director Steve Harper, meanwhile, has overseen a restructuring of the coaching set-up.

Former Newcastle defender Peter Ramage will take charge of the Under-18s, while ex Aston Villa and Everton midfielder Kevin Richardson will assist Chris Hogg with the Under-23s. Neil Winskill will replace Dawson as the academy's head of coaching.

Harper is said to have made a positive impact at the academy since replacing Joe Joyce earlier this year.
