Yeung takes stake in Birmingham

Credit: BBC Sport



Hong Kong businessman Carson Yeung has become Birmingham's largest single shareholder after buying 29.9% of shares from the club's directors.

David and Ralph Gold, David Sullivan, Karren Brady and Roger Bannister have all sold some of their shares to Yeung.

The deal is worth nearly £15m and could still lead to a potential £50m takeover of the club by the 47-year-old.

If Yeung increased his holding to 30% then it would allow him to trigger a bid to assume full control.

Yeung had paid a non-refundable deposit of £1.09m on 27 June in anticipation of the deal.

The Gold brothers and David Sullivan each sold 14.81% of the club's shares to Yeung.

----

Yet another Premiership club becomes under Foreign ownership.

Re: Yeung takes stake in Birmingham

Yeah he probably will buy more stake as time goes on but as of now he only has like under a third.

Re: Yeung takes stake in Birmingham

When he purchases over thirty percent, which isn't that far away, he will have the option to purchase even more shares and may invokve a takeover of the entire club.

Well it's obvious that he is going to try and take over, he will just bide his time buying them.
