Mike Ashley Reportedly Overseas to Hear Latest Offer for Newcastle Takeover

Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley is reportedly considering selling the club following a £350m offer.

Ashley has apparently travelled to the United States to discuss the potential sale of the Magpies, however the club have denied claims that they are in any advanced talks and have instead declared that it is business as usual.

According to The Mirror, the claims were made by a credible American source with reputable contacts in regards to takeover bids.

Ashley had put the Tyneside outfit for sale last year, yet despite high-profile financier Amanda Stavely keen on acquiring the Magpies, the controversial owner opted against the trade.
