Consortium linked with Hammers

Share
A consortium of banks is one of the options to take over ownership of West Ham United.

It follows the collapse of the club's holding company, Hansa, which is owned by West Ham chairman Bjorgolfur Gudmundsson.

One option is for ownership to be passed to the consortium led by Straumur, Hansa's major creditor.

But, contrary to some reports, it is understood a decision has yet to be made.

There is currently a legal process in place that prevents any of Hansa's creditors seizing West Ham before 9th June.

Sky Sports News chief news reporter Bryan Swanson understands the current developments will have no impact on the day-to-day running of West Ham, with manager Gianfranco Zola widely expected to sign a new contract.
