(Reuters) - Sheikh Khaled bin Zayed al-Nahyan, a member of Abu Dhabi's ruling family, says he had agreed to buy Newcastle United and submitted "proof of funds" to the Premier League, British media reported on Wednesday.
British media reports have said this week that Sheikh Khaled is in talks with Newcastle owner Mike Ashley over a 350 million pounds deal for the club, which finished 13th in the league this season.
