Newcastle United may be on the verge of signing a new front-of-shirt sponsorship deal with the AI-powered audio company ElevenLabs - prominent fan account @NUFCgallowgate posted a series of teaser graphics on X, directly linking the club's crest with the tech firm's logo and fueling discussions about a potential commercial partnership for the upcoming seasons.
