Kuwaiti billionaire, Al Kharafi, who is said to have a fortune of about $12 billion, has reportedly made contact with the Newcastle United owner.

According to the Telegraph report, Al Kharafi has sent an intermediary to Newcastle discuss any potential bit of business.

Telegraph intermediary: "Nasser Al Kharafi has the money to buy the club, but the way Mike Ashley is going about things is wrong. He is actually putting off any interested buyers with the price and his refusal to negotiate. If he genuinely wants to sell he is going about it the wrong way.

"As things stand he will be returning to England without a buyer."
