BREAKING: Sky Sports claim foreign investors are showing ‘significant’ interest in buying NUFC

News has broken in the last few moments that Newcastle United have received significant interest from Chinese investors over the buying of Newcastle United.

Sky Sports news claim that Newcastle have received significant interest in recent weeks from foreign investors, with one of those known to be  a Chinese consortium showing real interest in taking over the club.

It is being reported that NUFC owner Mike Ashley is now considering all options available following.

Newcastle are a club on the up, back in the Premier League, with Rafa Benitez backed by incredibly loyal fans and a 52,000 stadium. What is not to like for a potential new investor?

Whilst we have hoped to see the back of Mike Ashley for several years, I would be careful what you wish for, however. Whilst the likes of Chelsea and Manchester City have done wonders thanks for new investment, Blackburn and Aston Villa are examples of how new ownership can ruin a club.

Should potential new owners plan to keep Rafa Benitez, back him financially and take the club to the next level, a takeover would be incredible, but the grass isn’t always greener on the other side..
