That's part of my skepticism on the whole reports - i doubt there will be much interest in his Palace stake, for one - why would pay to the be the biggest shareholder in a company when you only have one third of a say with minority shareholders and have no operating control. Two - if you are serious about selling a stake, you don't go public about your interest in investing in a better opportunity elsewhere in the same industry - one, it creates a deadline and leverages down your negotiating position and 2, why would you buy it, when someone else is jumping ship in the same industry - for what they perceive is a bettor opportunity.
I think its all smoke and mirrors.
Nothing I've seen around any of this convinces me its legitimate.

Forbes has it at about 600 million, which is probably about right considering there have been many parties interested around that price.
And yes, too many people confuse the cost of building stadium with it's value.

Rather like Kenwright, Moshiri began by looking for investors rather than selling the club.
Obviously the the fact his wealth is closely linked to the sanctioned Usmanov has meant he has liquidity problems , especially with regards to completing the stadium.
I am increasingly of the opinion ( shared by others on here) that he would prefer not to sell.
I would not be at all surprised to see Moshiri survive this period of financial difficulties while retaining ownership or at least a substantial interest.
If he truly wanted to sell I believe we would have been sold by now.

I personally feel that he is likely resigned to selling, but only at a price where he walks away with 'something'. The issue is that we're financially in a dire mess.
When you combine our precarious league position with the sizeable debt and unfavourable terms he has straddled us with, it means it can be a difficult sell.
Unless he is willing to reduce the asking price, thus reduce what he walks away with, we aren't going to be sold any time soon.
If he can ride the wave of discontent and financial mess until we're clear, he will be a happy man, although it's going to be difficult!
Exactly Matty

Basically there was a part 1 to that article and he was about to release the part 2 until Textor put out a general tweet directed at a few people basically saying 'be careful what you publish about me or you will be hearing from my lawyer'
