The business executive's stake in the club was diluted following cash injections by the Saudi Public Investment Fund and the Reuben family.

Amanda Staveley has resigned from dozens of Newcastle companies months after the Saudi takeover of the club.

She was ordered by a judge to pay Greek tycoon Victor Restis £3.4m owed from an investment he made in her businesses by next week.
