Sheffield Wednesday sale ‘could be concluded very quickly’ as consortium ready to act, says stock market trader
Sheffield Wednesday owner Dejphon Chansiri has been told a sale of the club could be concluded quickly with a US-based consortium ready to act if he’s willing to talk.
Dejphon Chansiri bought Sheffield Wednesday back in 2015 and has since endured a mixed stint as owner.
Back in December 2018, as per BBC Sport, the Thai businessman said he was willing to put the club up for sale: “I will put this club on the market. I believe many people want to buy.”
No sale came to pass, and the club have had some tough times in the following years.
Earlier this season the Owls were placed under a registration embargo by the EFL due to amounts owed to HM Revenue and Customs.
They had the same issue in the previous campaign, with a statement on the most recent issues reading: “This is a temporary issue and a consequence of significant and as yet unpaid sums of money owed to the chairman which in turn has impacted on the club’s immediate cashflow.”
Now, a report from the Mirror has claimed a US-based consortium are ready to take over Sheffield Wednesday.
US-based consortium ready to take over Sheffield Wednesday
Fan unrest at Hillsbrough is beginning to grow, with one supporter leading the charge for change.
Symon Quick, who works as a stock market trader, is part of a social media campaign urging change.
And in his interview with the Mirror, he has claimed that a US-based consortium are ready to take over the Owls if Chansiri will come to the table.
He said: “If he [Chansiri] would come to the table, I believe a deal could be concluded very quickly. The consortium I have been speaking with will be able to put in place everything that we as fans would like to see put in place.
“All the things I’m discussing with other fans are already part of the consortium’s package. These are serious players who want to do a serious job. They are involved in business which would work very well with Sheffield Wednesday being a part of their portfolio.
“I’m hoping that we might hear more from them soon, but I don’t have any control over what they say or don’t say. We have eight matches of this season to play and we are still in with an outside chance of a play-off spot. They don’t want to do anything that might interfere with that focus.”
