Newcastle have released a statement asking supporters 'to refrain from wearing traditional Arabic clothing or Middle East-inspired head coverings' in wake of the Magpies recent takeover.
A number of fans were spotted wearing the headwear at the Magpies game against Tottenham Hotspur this weekend - a fixture which signalled the start of a new era under Saudi ownership.
Kick It Out hoped to speak with the club over how the headwear could be seen as offensive and the club has since put out a statement asking fans to deter from wearing the attire if they usually wouldn't.

The statement read: "Newcastle United is kindly asking supporters to refrain from wearing traditional Arabic clothing or Middle East-inspired head coverings at matches if they would not ordinarily wear such attire.
"A number of supporters have recently attended St. James' Park wearing associated head coverings and robes, marking the takeover of the club by the Public Investment Fund (PIF), PCP Capital Partners and RB Sports & Media.
"No-one among the new ownership group was in any way offended by the attire of the fans who chose to celebrate in this way. It was a gesture that was acknowledged as positive and welcoming in its intent.
"However, there remains the possibility that dressing this way is culturally inappropriate and risks causing offence to others.
"All visitors to the club are, as always, encouraged to wear whatever is the norm for their own culture or religion, continuing to reflect the broad and rich multicultural communities and groups from which the club proudly draws its support."
