Newcastle chairman set to be hit with £59m lawsuit amid accusations of ‘malicious’ campaign to ‘destroy’ Saudi spy chief

The back page of the Sun newspaper reports NEWCASTLE chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan is set to be hit by a £59million lawsuit after being accused of orchestrating a “malicious” campaign against a dissident former Saudi spy chief.

Former intelligence chief Dr Saad Aljabri has claimed the Toon boss acted under the direct instructions of Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman in a bid to “destroy” him.

Legal papers lodged at a Canadian court have asked for Al-Rumayyan to be added to an ongoing case in a move that puts Newcastle’s Saudi takeover under the spotlight once again.
