    Glad he 'doesn't see what that achieves.' It proves how clueless he is.

    How's got the popcorn hahaha
    Thing is, that’s a UEFA rule regarding the clubs playing in the same competition to maintain its sporting integrity…

    The rule about us selling to Saudi is just a made up rule by a majority group of Premier League clubs (including Man Utd) to prevent Newcastle from fairly competing in the league.

    Nah fella, this was in place long before us and PIF and is because of Watford and Udinese inter company transfers.

    UEFA banning Man Utd buying off Nice
    We can still buy off PIF owned Saudi clubs BUT it will be treat as an associated party transaction, and we’d expect to buy/sell to fair market value.

    Assume there is a degree of flexibility in that, but we won’t be selling Miggy for 100m in a hurry… or ever really 🤣
