Report: What sources close to Mike Ashley are saying about Henry Mauriss

According to The Chronicle, Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley is growing impatient about the potential sale of the club.

The report has claimed that Ashley will soon look to seek clarity about the situation, as he wants to get the sale of Newcastle to Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund done.

The owner’s and director’s test process has taken two months now, and the Premier League have yet to make a decision, according to the report.

It has been further claimed that sources close to Ashley have refused to play down the chances of American tycoon Henry Mauriss buying Newcastle should the potential sale to PIF fall through.
