Newcastle Free To Make Saudi Arabia Sponsorships
The EPL have decided to lift the temporary ban that prevented Newcastle from signing sponsorship from their owners' country.
Time for a game of Newcastle sponsorship roulette. My chips are on Saudia (airline) in shirt/naming rights double with strong support from Saudi Aramco and Saudi Telecom (STC), plus bank, say SABB (HSBC). https://t.co/ql6KwhDuwk

Newcastle Free To Complete Saudi Arabia Sponsor Deals
When it was announced that Public Investment Fund (PIF) from Saudi Arabia became the new owners of Newcastle United, intense backlash was felt.
This led to an emergency meeting by the EPL to decide on a temporary ban on 'related party' sponsorship while they were figuring out new sponsorship rules. This meant that Newcastle could not sign a deal with any company related to PIF during such ban.
With the ban lifted, Newcastle may resume to complete these type of deals, without any limit to how many they can sign. However, they are subjected to review by the board of EPL to decide whether the deals are 'fair market value'.
The EPL has the authority to assess whether each deal has been negotiated at a fair value or artificially inflated. The will compare the value of the deal against other similar sponsorships before it and consult independent assessors.
Do you think the new regulation will stop inflated sponsorship from clubs? Comment below.
No More Score: In-House Saint Vincent and the Grenadines 2026 Kits Released
The Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Football Federation (SVGFF) has officially unveiled the new 2026 kit collection for the national team, nicknamed Vincy Heat. Marking a departure from previous technical sponsor Score, who had supplied the Caribbean side since 2021, the federation has opted to design and produce the new jerseys entirely in-house under the campaign moniker "Ours."
The launch showcases three distinct colorways directly inspired by the country's national flag: vibrant yellow, royal blue, and emerald green. All three kits share a unified template featuring a sharp V-neck collar, subtle contrast piping along the shoulders, and matching ribbed cuffs. Across the front and sleeves, each jersey incorporates a dynamic diagonal brushstroke graphic filled with repeating micro-motifs representing the three diamonds from the flag.
Contrasting details complete the look across the range, with royal blue trim and numbering adorning the primary yellow shirt, while bright yellow accents finish off the blue and green editions. Underpinned by slogans such as "Our Nation. Our Culture. Our Team" and "Wherever we go, we carry home," the new collection puts a strong emphasis on national identity as the team moves forward with its own branded apparel.
