Newcastle part-owner Amanda Staveley met Steve Bruce at the club's training ground on Monday with the manager's future still unclear.
Staveley, who owns 10% of the club, and partner Mehrdad Ghodoussi also met players as the squad began preparations for Newcastle's game against Tottenham at St James' Park on Sunday.
A large proportion of fans want Bruce to leave the club.
Newcastle are winless and second from bottom in the Premier League.
The new owners, who took over the club in a £305m deal on Thursday, have been linked with former Borussia Dortmund manager Lucien Favre, Steven Gerrard and former Chelsea boss Frank Lampard as potential replacements.
