As per The Athletic journalist, he believes that a decision on the proposed takeover will come soon, citing that beIN Sports were briefing that it was imminent according to their information.

Members of the Toon faithful have been waiting for months now as to whether the prospective £300 million deal between Mike Ashley and Amanda Staveley’s Saudi-led group will be approved by the top flight, as the results of the Owners’ and Directors’ Test (ODT) are still not yet clear as to whether the would-be owners are deemed to be both fit and proper by England’s highest division.
With delay after delay being thrown in the face of the NUFC supporters, these Magpies lauded Caulkin for giving them another update and suggesting that a decision by the league will be made soon:
I'm sure it's all incredibly complex, surely something has to give soon🙏

Tbf to the PL, they have had a lot on their plates. What with trying to get the league back up and running during a global pandemic. I’m sure they’ll make a decision before this season is out
