Newcastle United's incoming owners haven't decided on when to sack Steve Bruce.
Sky Sports says Newcastle's new owners are expected to replace Bruce as manager, however, how soon that will be remains to be seen.
Newcastle are next in action against Spurs in 10 days time - live on Sky Sports - but a decision on when he is replaced has yet to be made.
The consortium don't want to make any knee-jerk decisions, but it's understood one of the priorities is deciding who will take over in the dugout at St James' Park moving forward.
Bruce said last week he wanted the takeover to happen for the good of the club and their fans.
The takeover is imminent as the final elements of the £300m deal are being tied up.
