There are rumors that Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund may reduce its role in LIV Golf.
The breakaway golf league continues to face difficulties, including talks with traditional tours and doubts about its financial viability. This situation has led to new speculations regarding PIF’s investment priorities.
As PIF also owns Newcastle United, there is growing interest in how any changes in golf funding could influence the club’s football activities.

According to the Daily Mail, any possible exit from LIV Golf will not impact Newcastle United, as PIF remains committed to the club for the long term.
The report emphasizes that Newcastle is a vital part of PIF’s “strategic” portfolio.
Plans for a £200 million training facility at Woolsington are expected to be revealed, while talks about a new stadium or upgrading St James’ Park are still in progress.
Key PIF officials are also set to visit Tyneside to reaffirm their support for the club and its future direction.
Newcastle project shows stronger long-term indicators
Newcastle’s advancements under PIF ownership indicate a more reliable return compared to the uncertain future of LIV Golf.
The club has achieved Champions League qualification twice and finished in the top five of the Premier League on two occasions, maintaining consistent competition in England’s top tier.
They have also shown effective player trading, including the £125 million sale of Alexander Isak and the increasing market values of players like Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes.
Even with a more difficult season ahead, these signs reveal a project that continues to grow in value and stability.
