Newcastle boss Steve Bruce fears he will be sacked following the completion of the Saudi Arabian-backed £305m takeover of the Premier League side.
Bruce was appointed Newcastle boss in July 2019 but has struggled to win over supporters.
"I'd like the chance to show the new owners what I can do, but you have to be realistic and they may well want a new manager to launch things for them.
"New owners normally want a new manager. I've been around long enough to understand that."
Newcastle finished 13th in Bruce's first season in charge but flirted with relegation last term before an improved end to the campaign saw them finish 12th.
