Newcastle United are fighting for survival in the Premier League at the moment.
According to The Times, Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley is no longer looking to sell the club.
It has been reported that Ashley has taken Newcastle off the market after putting the Premier League club up for sale for the past 17 months.
The report has also claimed that interest from Amanda Staveley and Peter Kenyon in buying the Magpies did not materialise.
Major development
With Ashley reportedly deciding that he will not sell Newcastle, it is a major development.
It will be interesting to see how the fans react, as many of them want the English businessman to sell the Magpies and leave.
Relegation battle
Newcastle are fighting for survival in the Premier League at the moment and are in real danger of going down to the Championship at the end of the season.
Rafael Benitez’s side lost 2-0 to West Ham United in the Premier League on Saturday evening, and they are now six points above the relegation zone.
Newcastle will return to action next weekend when they take on Everton at St. James’ Park in the Premier League.
