A member of a ruling family in the United Arab Emirates has bought a majority stake in a Premier League club, the official WAM news agency reported on Sunday.
WAM did not name the club but said Sheikh Ahmed bin Saqr al-Qassimi has bought a 60 per cent share, adding that details would be announced in a few days.
Sheikh Ahmed, a member of the ruling family Ras al-Khaimah, will be honorary chairman of the club.
Last year Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Masnour bin Zayed al Nahyan bought Premier League club Manchester City, and Portsmouth have been the subject of a bid from another Abu Dhabi investor, Sulaiman al-Fahim.
I wonder who?
