The Daily Mail are reporting that Amanda Staveley will not be appointed as the Newcastle United CEO.

It is being reported that Staveley was expecting to get the role of Newcastle CEO.

However, the 48-year-old has been passed over for the role at St. James’ Park, despite her PCP Capital Partners firm having a 10% stake in the club.

Public face of new Newcastle regime

Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) are the majority owners of Newcastle.

PIF took over from Mike Ashley this month.

RB Sports & Media also own a part of Newcastle now.

Staveley has been the public face of the new Newcastle regime, and this new report in The Daily Mail quite intriguing.

If not Staveley, then who will be the new Newcastle CEO?

As reported by The Guardian earlier this month, British financier Staveley will have a seat on the Newcastle board.

Staveley has made herself very popular among the Newcastle fans, who will hope that the club make some good signings in the January transfer window.

Newcastle are not doing well in the Premier League at the moment, but things could be able to change for the Magpies.
