NUFC Podcast: Who are The Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia - owners of Newcastle United?

Alex Hurst chats to three academic experts on Saudi Arabia about the group that owns 80% of Newcastle United - the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia (PIF). This podcast is an attempt by True Faith to understand more about the PIF including it's rise to prominence since 2015, it's decision to buy Newcastle United, what role 'sportswashing' had in the takeover and what the reaction has been in Saudi Arabia to the takeover of Newcastle United.
