That’s the whole idea of buying/selling businesses. I’d say there’s a big question mark around how much he’ll end up making though, the pie in the sky valuations he’s placed on the club in the past aren’t achievable so it will be a modest return and not the £70m-£100m he was ridiculously expecting.No issue with it per se but with your extensive business knowledge surely you can’t deny he will do well out of the deal if/when he sells…
If I’d invested £70m+ over a period of 7 years I’d feel justified in asking to make a return on that investment.
I’m not an Abdullah fan nor do I dislike him, I just don’t get some of the arguments against him and mortgaging a business and then paying back the mortgage out of business proceeds seems a tenuous stick to beat him with.
