According to The Athletic, Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley met with two Mexican businessmen in London last week to discuss a possible sale of the club.
After the takeover plans by UAE-based Bin Zayed Group fell through, the Magpies have been recently linked with another possible takeover by former Manchester United and Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon.
However, no suitors have been able to meet Ashley’s demands.
The Alejandro Irarragorri-led Orlegi Group, who owns Santos Laguna, were said to have had Newcastle on their radar in May, but it is unknown if they are the same set of Mexicans that had the latest meeting with the Newcastle chief.
