LA Galaxy, Home Depot Center, LA Kings, Staples Center, O2 Arena and Anschutz Film Group Owner (and trust me, I know I’m missing a lot more) Phillip Anschutz has issued a statement regarding his name being thrown into the ring of possible buyers for Mike Ashley’s Newcastle.

“Neither AEG nor anyone affiliated with the organisation are in negotiations or are contemplating the purchase of Newcastle United Football Club,” said the statement.

Looks like Clark Hunt is staying away as well.

“There’s nothing to it. They’re happy with the sports investments that they currently have. They’re not pursuing Newcastle or any other sports franchise at this time,” said FC Dallas spokesman German Sferra.
