The 15 Saudi Pro League loan moves Newcastle United could make following Premier League vote

Could Newcastle United make a loan move for a Saudi Pro League star following the outcome of a Premier League vote?

Newcastle United are able to make loan moves for players from Saudi Pro League clubs owned by the PIF following a Premier League vote earlier this week.

A vote to put a temporary ban on loan deals between clubs under the same ownership failed to meet the necessary two-thirds majority to be put into action.

BBC Sport have reported Newcastle were one of eight clubs to vote against a ban alongside Burnley, Chelsea, Everton, Manchester City, Nottingham Forest, Sheffield United and Wolves.

Although the Magpies have been roundly mentioned as the main beneficiaries of a vote against the ban, there are several other Premier League clubs that are part of multi-club ownership groups or have owners with shares in other clubs around the world. That figure is set to be increased as Sir Jim Ratcliffe closes in on a 25% share of Manchester United that will sit alongside his ownership of Ligue 1 club Nice.

However, should Newcastle wish to make the most of their Saudi links, there are several intriguing options available from Pro League clubs.
