Julian Ryerson could improve both teams
Ryerson can operate on either flank and he could be a very useful player for both clubs. Manchester United need more depth at wing-backs, and the Bundesliga defender could compete with Diogo Dalot for the starting spot. More competition for places could help both players improve.
On the other hand, Newcastle need an alternative here for Kieran Trippier, who is expected to be on his way. It will be interesting to see if either club follows up on their interest with an official proposal to sign the player. They have the resources to pay the asking price, and there is no doubt the defender has the quality to thrive in the Premier League. It remains to be seen how the situation will develop.
Ryerson has also been linked with Liverpool. Meanwhile, Sunderland tried to sign him at the start of the season.
Ryerson could be considering a move
The player is at the peak of his career and this could be the right time for him to take on a new challenge and prove himself in the Premier League. Manchester United are among the biggest clubs in the world, and the chance to join them will be quite exciting for the Norwegian. Likewise, Newcastle has an exciting and ambitious project. It remains to be seen if the player will be tempted to join them.
The 28-year-old has thirteen assists to his name in all competitions this season and he could improve both sides of the pitch for both teams.
