Wolves Rumours Archive March 07 2016

Ebanks-Landell is out for the remainder of the season. Batth and Hause now the only fit centre-backs at the club. We're apparently looking at the loan window now - Leon Barnett one target we're looking to bring in on loan with a view to a permanent deal in the summer.

Also, Van La Parra on his way out - loaned to Huddersfield until the summer and then £750k in the summer.

Hi All
Not been on for a while. But heard a snippet so thought I would pass it on. And it links in nicely with news from The Realist.
I have heard that something big is happening and that things have moved on fast paced over the last 10/ 14 days. It is to do with the sale of the club, and it is thought and I stress thought, that it is an American individual that is close to agreeing a deal. And the deal is close due to the fact that Morgan has lowered his asking price and removed one or two of the stumbling blocks that have put off other potential buyers.
That is what I have heard, from a pretty reliable source. But you know my opinion, I doubt that anyone other than the interested parties would know anything. But I wanted to pass on what I had heard.

This is Paul Allen's statement dated 23 January 2015:

"Recent speculation linking me to Aston Villa F. C. are unfounded. I have not indicated interest nor had any discussions pertaining to the purchase of Aston Villa or any other club - Paul G. Allen"

Could Tom Tit and The Realist still be right about Paul Allen? His statement about Villa is now over a year old but he also ruled out interest in other clubs.

I think the asking price for Villa was around £300 mil so that's probably why he wasn't interested.
My only worry is Moxey will be part of the next owners plans having kept us in the black for so long!

Hi guys not been on for a while either but very strange that the one offer that was left on the table from Christmas time that I heard was from a very wealthy American. I was not privy to the name of the individual but was told it was proper wealth. So this would kinda tie in with the above tumors the only stumbling block at that time was Morgan's reluctance to totally remove himself from the club so maybe that has now changed and this is why this is gathering pace?

07 Mar 2016 19:02:08
I had heard from somebody saying that morgan wanted small share in club and to keep moxey on but that seems to have changed from what I am gathering on here.

Gee wolf
He wants out, that is 100 percent.
He has a club he wants to invest in (non league)
Aaaaaaaahhhhhh wanna tell you so much.

07 Mar 2016 20:14:29
Interesting stuff.

A lot of people seem to be saying American connection.

07 Mar 2016 20:25:47
Morgan wants to invest in Wrexham. Getting them back to where they belong is a more realistic aim for someone of his comparatively limited means.

07 Mar 2016 21:17:04
Realist please tell as as much as possible. We're all friends here ;)

07 Mar 2016 21:44:10
Morgan hasn't the balls for the Premier League, He proved that with us. Amateur.

08 Mar 2016 09:12:02
Is Paul Allan the man Realist? Is this sale going through?

08 Mar 2016 10:00:14
Paul chill out mate you will have heart attack, even if he knew he can't say ill drop his contact in it so won't happen.

08 Mar 2016 14:31:32
Keep dreaming lads. there is no takeover. there is a small amount of interest but nothing solid. be a long time before we are sold.

08 Mar 2016 15:16:27
So Felix your sayin the sources r full of s--t then?

08 Mar 2016 15:52:05
Stop trying to be clever with new names. Nothing has changed from day one and it still seems to me as though someone was found ages ago, most definitely Ding Lei - this is why it's been so quiet! He's the only one that's had multiple talks with them and probably the reason why nobody else is enquiring. Stop worrying so much, Wolves has never been a difficult club to sell.

Wavidsmith he was mentioned well before Christmas so if your right and I hope you are? What's the hold up?

08 Mar 2016 17:44:24
There is no hold up, it's all of that due diligence rubbish and will be officially announced during close season. He has been seen on many occasions and has been travelling all the way from China to do so. Those are not the actions of a man just 'enquiring'. I don't wanna say to much and get your hopes up but I do think the Ding Lei rumour is very serious.

08 Mar 2016 23:07:02
Wavidsmith I thought when a club was brought they went through a stage where they cannot buy/ loan players. We loaned helan a couple of weeks back. Sorry to bring gloom but I don't think this is true. Someone prove me wrong please.

{Ed003's Note - If the proposed buyer sanctions the move it can and has happened in the past.}

Ah okay thanks ed. still hope then :)

The American businessman who came for his 2nd visit is Paul Allen (Microsoft) who already part owns the Seattle Sounders.

07 Mar 2016 14:33:09
Paul Allen was falsely liked to a takeover of Aston Villa at the beginning of 2015. He subsequently issued a denial.

If the Villa rumour was bull the Wolves one could be the same. That said, he ticks all the boxes we need ticking.

Paul Allen net worth 17.4 billion USD!
