Yasir Al-Rumayyan has given a revealing club interview following his first full season working as Newcastle United's chairman. The new owners have already overseen a drastic turnaround in fortunes on Tyneside, with Eddie Howe's side set to compete in the Champions League next season having already reached a domestic cup final.
Newcastle look set to invest again this summer, with AC Milan midfielder Sando Tonali due to become the first 'elite' addition of the latest window. Away from the senior squad, the deal for Yankuba Minteh proves the academy remains a focus while the women's team have turned professional after securing promotion last term.
Al-Rumayyan covered a range of topics in his review of the 2022/2023 campaign, as well as offering a glimpse of the ownership's ambition. Here are five key points for Newcastle fans to take from the chairman's post-season interview with club media.
