I've been looking at a few articles in the Chronicle Live regards the Newcastle situation - their proposed takeover and kit deal with Castore. The Reuben brothers are reported to be part of the consortium looking to takeover at Newcastle. Here is an article about the brothers.

"The Reuben brothers' website confirms they are billionaires with property interests in central London and also Newcastle.
The siblings, in their 80s and 70s, are rarely in the media and Simon, who is three years younger than his brother David, has given only one interview to a British publication in his entire career.
The 2019 Sunday Times Rich List put their worth at £18.664bn."
Jamie Reuben - son of the billionaire David, and nephew to Simon Reuben - has recently resigned from his role as a director on the board of Queens Park Rangers prompting further Newcastle takeover speculation, as you can see in the following article.
"Brothers David and Simon Reuben built a fortune in real estate and technology and have become one of the wealthiest families in the UK. Indeed, in May 2019 they were named as the second richest family in the UK by the Sunday Times Rich List with a net worth of £18.664 billion."
As you can see from the above quotes they are very wealthy but also very private people.
This article looks at Newcastle's proposed deal with Castore and mentions the Castore/Rangers connection.
"They (Castore) were moved to distance themselves from rumours in Glasgow that Mike Ashley was a shareholder - which would have been disastrous given his unpopularity at Rangers and an on-going replica shirt boycott. "We have investors who like to remain private. Our biggest investor is one of the wealthiest families in the UK," Tom Beahon said in May."
Is it possible the Reuben brothers are Castores' biggest investor and are behind the proposed Newcastle kit deal providing their takeover goes through?
