The Sun’s former chief football writer Ian McGarry has claimed that there has been an indication that the English Premier League may make an announcement on the Newcastle United takeover this week.

An imminent verdict from the league on the Saudis’ £300 million bid to buy the Magpies is expected after the World Trade Organization ruled that the Kingdom was behind pirate satellite TV beoutQ.

It remains unknown if the takeover will be approved, but the legal team of the English top-flight has taken two months to look into it and there shouldn’t be much to be done again following the release of the WTO report.

Newcastle fans are waiting for something to happen this week following McGarry’s claim on The Transfer Window Podcast with Duncan Castles, and here is how some of them have reacted to the report on Twitter:
