Amnesty International have called on the Premier League to completely 'overhaul' the owners' and directors' test following Newcastle's failed takeover bid.
A consortium bankrolled by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF), and spearheaded by businesswoman Amanda Staveley, agreed a deal with Newcastle owner Mike Ashley in April.
But the bid was marred by controversy regarding Saudi Arabia's human rights record and allegations of TV rights piracy - which led to four months of scrutiny from the Premier League before the takeover eventually fell through.
The takeover saga shone light on the Premier League owners' and directors' test, which closely looks at whether potential investors meet certain standards in order to protect football's reputation.
