This can’t come soon enough for the Geordie nation. Soon to be the most powerful football club in the world. Welcome to our Saudi friends.

What do we think?
If this post is true, then the Toon will not have long to wait until official confirmation of the takeover is confirmed.
Does this post make you excited?
Yes, it looks good
No, not believing anything until it is confirmed
The deal is now with the Premier League going through the owners and directors test after contracts were exchanged, and a deposit was paid to Mike Ashley.
Challenges have emerged from Amnesty International and BeIN Sport, but if this tweet is to be believed, then by the end of this month, Newcastle United will be in new hands.
Judging by many of the replies, this has excited these Toon fans.
