Newcastle United are set to become arguably the richest club in the world following the Premier League-approved takeover of the side by a Saudi Arabian-led consortium.
The Premier League team will be owned 80 per cent by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) in a consortium led by businesswoman Amanda Staveley.
With Newcastle’s new owners worth a staggering €260 billion, the Premier League outfit could be set to splash the cash in a way never ever seen before in football.
This has led to an unprecedented number of transfer reports and rumours in the last few days, as the media went crazy with stories over who Newcastle will or could sign.
Below are 58 players from around Europe that have been linked to Newcastle by national media outlets in the last three days alone.
This illustrates just how insane the transfer rumour mill can be – and why we should take many of these links with a pinch of salt.
Yes, Newcastle will have a lot of money to spend. But the large majority of stories on these players alone have been completely fabricated or exaggerated simply because the Saudi-led takeover is such big news now.
