An Asian consortium in takeover talks with Newcastle United has been given a tour of the
club's facilities.
PA Sport says the potential buyers, thought to be from
Malaysia, were given a tour of the club's facilities on Thursday
and have since returned to London to continue discussions.
There was no official confirmation of the story on Thursday
night, but with all interested parties having signed non-disclosure
agreements, that came as no surprise.
But sources close to the club were not denying it either, and
there is a growing feeling that an end to a saga which has rumbled
on for more than a month could be in sight.
