Lawrence took charge of the Magpies' under-21 side in September 2025, joining the Magpies' Academy from Manchester United, where he was Lead Coach for the club's under-18s side.

Newcastle United Academy Director, Steve Harper, said: "I'd like to thank Adam for his time with us leading the Under-21 group.

"We wish him the best of luck as he pursues the next step in his coaching career."
