Is there any Arab state that has yet to dip into the football world? UK government and the football governing body is perfectly fine with them buying and owning PL clubs. 

Kuwait and Bahrain.

According to Matt Law, some prospective buyers of the club plan to try and persuade Marina to stay at the club.

If this is indeed true, even if it wasn't to come to fruition, it does fill me with a little more confidence over who might come in and buy the club that they're at least aware of the current surroundings within the club and areas that help make it successful.

Loutfy Monsour

Quote

 

Mansour is another man mentioned as a conceivable proprietor of Abramovich’s empire.

He holds the position of chief executive of Man Capital, a section of his family’s enterprise, the Mansour Group.

As highlighted before, the Egyptian clearly follows Chelsea on a fan basis, possibly giving him leverage above the other interested suitors.

What supporters of the Champions League holders really want is someone who puts football first before finances.

If Mansour can ensure and prove that, then he will be welcomed into the family with open arms.

As present, I struggle to see how Roman is going to sell the club unless he comes down significantly on his asking price.

I believe I read somewhere that shares for Man Utd on the NY stock exchange value the club at around 2bn (not sure if this is £ or $) and there is absolutely no way we can justify being more valuable than United.

The stadium is a big issue and whilst the club has become closer to being self sufficient from an accounting perspective, it still hemorrhages cash, hence why Roman has still continued to pump money into the club each year. I can't see how we're that attractive of a buy to people viewing us as an investment, unless someone can get us for closer to £1 - 1.5bn.

Maybe it's cynical or maybe I'm completely wide of the mark with my assessment above, but a part of me does wonder whether Roman's asking price is a means to show willingness to sell but knows he is almost certainly not going to get offered that sort of money, and just buys a bit of time for now.
