 WEST HAM were the subject of a £650MILLION takeover bid in August. But the club turned it down because co-owner David Gold and David Sullivan have no desire to sell. The revelations came tonight from Jack Sullivan, son of mega-rich David. It follows Boxing Day reports that the Hammers were considering a £200m offer from Red Bull. Sullivan tweeted: "Re red bull story in sun today,completely out of date and figures wrong we turned down £650m in august. We have no desire to sell out No desire to sell our heritage and be called red bull West Ham. #coyi." Sullivan and Gold bought a majority stake in West Ham in 2010 in a deal that valued the club at £105m. They now own more than 85 per cent of the club. Red Bull have played down the suggestions they are interested in buying West Ham, while Hammers owners have told BBC Sport they are not looking for investors. |
