At first, it appeared as speculation, from not very reliable media, however, during today, some concrete steps were clearly taken, so Ruben Neves (26) could wear the Newcastle jersey just a few days after he signed for Al Hilal.How so – you might ask?First of all, it is a loan, as it is stated, most likely for two years, and if you are wondering how the agreement was reached, i.e. how Al Hilal is loaning the star that it recently paid as much as 55,000,000 and gave him a salary of 17,000,000 euros per season, the answer is the following: the two clubs are under the same owner.##NAJAVA_MECA_7333552##Both clubs are managed by the Saudi foundation PIF, an investment fund managed by Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Prime Minister and Minister of Defense of Saudi Arabia.And what does this achieve?It’s simple. In this way, Newcastle will be able to bring in an expensive reinforcement without burdening the financial books.If such a transaction really happens, it will be a declaration of war to UEFA and Financial Fair Play.Let us remind you that Newcastle are close to signing AC Milan’s Sandro Tonali for 75,000,000 euros.🚨 Newcastle have discussed internally the possibility of signing Ruben Neves on loan from Al-Hilal. 👀A two-year loan has even been discussed. 🇸🇦Both are owned by PIF. 🤔✍️ @footyinsider247 pic.twitter.com/sENDVg830q— Football Tweet ⚽ (@Football__Tweet) June 22, 2023
