Accuracy of the stories isn't particularly important as long as there's clicks and engagement. An inaccurate story that generates interest is more use to them than an accurate story that doesn't.

Harry 209 Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 (edited) "Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund is prepared to dilute its stake in Newcastle United by selling up to 25 per cent of its shareholding in the club. The PIF, which recently pulled the plug on its funding for LIV Golf, intends to remain the majority shareholder. However, the move is seen as key in an attempt to get equity into the Premier League club before the announcement this summer of a proposed £200million training ground at Woolsington, a village near Newcastle, and further talks on a possible new stadium that could cost more than £1billion. The club’s value, according to sources, is thought to have increased to about £1.5billion. A sale of a quarter of the PIF’s stake would give the buyer a shareholding of 21.25 per cent of Newcastle and could bring in more than £300million, a sum that would be put towards the two substantial projects. The PIF owns 85 per cent of Newcastle at present, a stake it purchased from the former owner Mike Ashley in a £305million takeover in September 2021. The Reuben brothers, through RB Sports & Media, own the other 15 per cent. It is thought that the PIF is prepared to dilute its present holding in the club to about 63.75 per cent after being told at a club meeting last month that equity was needed to progress the plans for a new ground and training facility. Newcastle must part-fund any new stadium themselves. That means the club will need to have enough equity to have the right loan-to-value ratio. They will also have to carry a significant part of the funding for a new ground and are looking for new investors to join the PIF and the Reuben brothers."

I dont think I am smart enough to really do the pros and cons I get spread the risk, mitigate risk, keep your own liquid capital to allow to diversify your interests which may yield quicker or better returns. However if they want to be the best and by default mean we become worth alot more you don't surely sell up a large chunk at a 1.2/1.5b value if you think down the line you could be worth double or more?
