Banker to tackle United takeover
The Japanese bank Nomura said it is in talks with the life-long Reds fan, who is a former head of the Football League and head of merchant bank Seymour Pierce, though discussions are at an early stage.
“Nomura confirms its Asset Finance Group is in discussions with Seymour Pierce Ltd about providing finance to assist them and the supporters with a view to developing a strategy that will provide a long-term future for Manchester United that is in the best interests of the club,” a statement from the bank said yesterday.
