Supporters Trust at Reading [STAR] have revealed that they have been ‘in contact’ with two potential new investors for the football club.
Owner Dai Yongge is looking to sell the club, and a deal could be struck to ensure that the SCL Stadium is included in any sale.
News broke last week that controversial British businessman, William Storey, had seen a £50m bid accepted to purchase the club.
However, Reading Football Club have since confirmed that ‘no single individual or entity has exclusivity in this process.’
STAR are keen to assist with the sale in any way they can, and in an email to their members, seen by the Reading Chronicle, the organisation have confirmed that they have “been in contact with two potential investors and are open to speaking to anyone else who is looking to buy our club.”
Stakeholders are hoping for a swift resolution, with HMRC payments due next week and the October wages due in a fortnight.
September’s tax bill remains unpaid, as do some other creditors for services provided.
