Established 1892
Toon Army Forever
Newcastle United Football Club is a professional club based in the heart of Tyneside. Backed by one of the most passionate fanbases in world football, the Magpies have been transformed by the 2021 Saudi Public Investment Fund takeover into genuine title contenders.
From Kevin Keegan’s swashbuckling Entertainers of the mid-1990s — who came agonisingly close to the Premier League title — to Eddie Howe’s modern tactical evolution, Newcastle United’s story is one of passion, heartbreak and relentless ambition. The club is now valued at over $1.2 billion with ambitions to challenge for the very top.
