The Magpies are owned by the Saudi PIF, who also own a number of Saudi Pro League clubs including Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad, and Al-Ahli.

Several players from the Saudi league have been linked with Newcastle including Ruben Neves (Al-Hilal), Sergej Milinkovic-Savic (Al Hilal) and Sadio Mane (Al-Nassr).
