Newcastle United: Why money alone (yet) is not everything

The Public Financial Investment Fund (PIF; Arabic صندوق الاستثمارات العامة, DMG Sunday al-istiṯmārāt all -'Emma, public mutual fund ') is a state fund of Saudi Arabia. He is among the largest state funds on the planet with an estimated overall possession of $320 billion. He was established in 1971 for the purpose of the financial investment on behalf of the federal government of Saudi Arabia. After originally supplying a conventional investment policy and mostly credit history for nationwide growth jobs, he has become a worldwide investor. As component of its growth strategy Vision 2030, the federal government plans to develop the public Mutual fund for the biggest state fund on the planet. The fund is headquartered in Road. The present chairman is the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, which substantially affects his choices.

Since the takeover by the Saudi State Fund PIF in October 2021, Newcastle United is considered the rich football club in the world. Without a question an extremely comfortable situation. In the north of England, however, something is characterized, which had only very limited validity in football business: money alone is not everything.

After 13 match days, Newcastle United fools with the lean yield of six points on the floor of the Premier League table. The qualification for the international business has long since become a dream, the whereabouts in the league already not a little challenge.

No wonder so that the abundant millions should be used in winter to build the barely existing points in the second half. Stupid only that the stars of the scene seem to have little lust on the Trust every day in the English spreadsheet.

Many rumors, many cancellations

Marc-André TER Steven, Eden Hazard, Riyadh Mare, Axel Wiesel, Niklas's See or Race Sterling: Rumors around the Magpies does not lack, but canceled to cancel just as little.

Marcelo Robotic could join the illustrious series. The midfielder from Inter Milan has to be free transfer at the end of the season and is not least for most top clubs on the note. According to The Athletic Newcastle United wants to suffocate the poker in the germ in winter by killing Robotic with a crazy salary.

However, the 29-year-old is supposed to anything but interested at a commitment to Newcastle, it continues to say. Not at all, as long as the descent habits over the Type.

Of course, Newcastle will still find reinforcements in winter and, of course, said crazy offers not every player will leave cold, but the rise of the Gray Premier League Easter is likely to be shaped for the swans title candidate.

Newcastle from decisive duel

Especially since the current starting situation the project league does not necessarily have to be the self-runner. Alone, because the grow of the existing staff, which should now get the coals from the fire, the motivation is expected to be exchanged in view of the prospect, anyway against expensive stars.

Overcast the Daily Mail Newcastle's Top stars Monroe Shelley was enthusiastic about the takeover and emphasized how unbelievable it would be to start with his heart club in the Champions League, but SHELLEY also restricted: Who knows if I still there.

An enormous finger watch, where the path could lead, it should be available for the coming weekend. Then Newcastle receives the penultimate Norwich City. In a bankruptcy, top talents and stars really likely can only be convinced with moon salaries from a change.
