West Ham make change to board of directors amid strong speculation
West Ham United have made a major change to their board this week, as speculation rises around the takeover.
PAI Capital are pushing to complete a deal, but David Gold and Sullivan remain adamant nothing will happen.
GSB are in fact making changes of their own, with Emma Benton-Hughes being removed from the board of directors.
Finance expert Kieran Maguire has shared the news on his personal Twitter account, release a document from Companies House.
“Emma Benton-Hughes, partner of West Ham owner David Sullivan, sister of Jonny Trunk and star of some niche one-handed viewer films, leaves the West Ham board of directors,” he wrote.
One down…
Well then, Sullivan has removed his partner from the board of directors, and many fans will be hoping he will follow soon.
Phillip Beard was once again on talkSPORT on Tuesday selling his vision for PAI at the London Stadium, but it doesn’t appear to be getting him and them any closer to taking over.
GSB look to be going nowhere, and if this month continues with no signings, there will be outrage towards them.
Multiple deals have gotten close, but nothing has been confirmed, and the takeover appears to have taken our attention away from much-needed transfers.
Hopefully, we see more movement soon, both in the transfer market and at board level – both are desperately needed.
