Newcastle ready January swoops for two Man United stars

Word stemming from the media suggests that newly-minted Newcastle United have turned their attentions towards Old Trafford ahead of the opening of the January transfer window.

All change at St. James’

The news which shook the foundation of English football to its very core was of course forthcoming last Thursday.

This came in the form of Mike Ashley’s tumultuous 14-year stint at the forefront of Newcastle United being brought to a definitive close.

On the back of a negotiation period spanning 18 months, the one final stumbling block – in the form of Saudi Arabia’s ban on all content stemming from broadcaster beIN Sports – was finally overcome, opening the door for a Saudi consortium led by Yasir Al-Rumayyan to kickstart a new era on Tyneside.

Newcastle, in turn, made word of the change in ownership at the club official on October 7th, in a deal worth a rumoured £300 million.#Sports #Transfernews
