World's fifth richest man eyes Birmingham

Indian-born billionaire Lakshmi Mittal - the fifth richest man in the world - has emerged as a contender to buy Premiership club Birmingham.

  
The steel magnate, who is worth £19.25 billion, has made an inquiry about the possibility of taking over the midlands club from David Sullivan and David and Ralph Gold.


Mittal, who is based in the UK, has not so far followed up his initial interest in Blues who have become a more attractive commodity following their return to the Premiership.

City are already the subject of interest from a mystery Far East businessman who is planning to make a formal bid later in the week if auditors are satisfied after going through the club's books.

But 56-year-old Mittal, who last year bought Arcelor, the world's second biggest steel-maker for £17.8 billion, is maintaining a watching brief.

Mittal has twice the personal fortune of Chelsea owner Roman Abramowich and Blues could be transformed into a major power if he took control.

Sullivan and the Golds, who would relinquish control for around £50 million, would be happier with a quick sale of City rather than a long drawn-out affair if their time at the club is to end after 14 years.

In the meantime Birmingham manager Steve Bruce is pressing ahead with his plans to try to strengthen his squad for next season.

But he suffered a setback with West Brom rejecting a joint £5 million bid for Diomansy Kamara and Jason Koumas.

Yeung gets green light for Birmingham takeover

Birmingham directors David and Ralph Gold, David Sullivan, Karren Brady and Roger Bannister have agreed to sell 29.9% of the club's shares to Hong Kong businessman Carson Yeung.

The Golds and Sullivan have each agreed to sell 14.81% of the club's shares to Grandtop International Holdings Limited while Brady has agreed to part with 0.23%.

Fellow director Bannister completes the agreement, offering to sell 0.05% and all shares will be priced at the ordinary share capital of 61.331 pence.

Yeung heads GIHL and has until 5pm on July 16 to to complete the deal.

Yeung's company look set to go through with the purchase having already paid a non-refundable deposit of £1.09million - an amount that will be deductible from the final payment should it proceed.

If GIHL did buy the maximum 29.9%, Yeung would instantly become the single largest stakeholder, taking over from the Gold brothers and Sullivan who currently own 78% of the shares between them.

In the new arrangement the Gold brothers and Sullivan would see their stake fall to 23.22% each.

Brady's revised holding would be 0.54% and Bannister would retain 0.11%.

Although the club were keen to stress that GIHL were stopping short of launching a full-scale takeover - as had earlier been mooted - it seems highly possible that Yeung will look to increase his holding further, with a 30% stake enough to trigger a bid for complete control.

A statement to the stock exchange said: 'Shareholders should be aware that there is currently no indication at this stage that a formal offer will be made for the company as a whole but discussions are continuing with GIHL which may or may not lead to a cash offer being made for the the company in due course.'

Blues manager Steve Bruce is continuing with his transfer plans amid the news and is poised to sign midfielder Olivier Kapo from Juventus in a £2million deal.

Kapo, a France international, is holding talks with talks with Blues after the two clubs agreed a fee.

City are also close to confirming Scotland striker Garry O'Connor's £2.6million move from Lokomotiv Moscow.

路透倫敦 電---一名發言人稱，英國    體育大臣卡本(Richard Caborn)周三將和英國足壇高層會談，討論外國老板不斷進入英超所引發的憂慮。

「卡本將與英超聯賽執行長斯丘達莫爾(Richard Scudamore)、英格蘭足總主席杰夫湯普森(Geoff Thompson)、足球聯盟(Football League)主席莫西尼(Lord Mawhinney)在周三早晨進行會談，」其發言人對路透說。

但這名發言人否認媒體所稱，英超聯賽以「日程繁忙」為由不願和卡卡本會面的報導。

「大臣將詢問聯賽，外資的注入是否導致問題，政府或球迷是否有應該擔心之處，」其發言人說。
