jmjhb Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) It's because Fosun have (or at least did at one point) a stake in Jorge Mendes's agency Edited October 1, 2020 by jmjhb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DazBob Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Chinese owners and a heavily involved Portguese agent innit? Anyway, all irrelevant with regards to the (spas)Tics. Nobody is going to be chucking hundreds of £millions their way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TransferNews @transfernewz94 A potential stumbling block in the Wigan takeover has appeared after the EFL have discovered allegations of tax evasion against José Miguel Garrido Cristo #WAFC So now we know who is behind this deal - There is a bit about him here https://diariodeavisos.elespanol.com/2019/10/quien-es-jose-miguel-garrido/ He is clearly not doing it because of any deep rooted affection for the club .... José Miguel Garrido Cristo is a 54-year-old entrepreneur from Madrid and the nephew of the animal trainer Ángel Cristo. He is dedicated to buying companies whose financial situation is not the most adequate and if he cannot refloat them, he liquidates them.

BWFC_LOVE Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 “few articles out there. Seems seriously dodgy and it's not as if he is the only interested party. We are not that desperate to jump in bed with another owner that isn't right for Wigan Athletic.” Is this guy for real? Not saying they should just jump from the frying pan like we did with Ken (if possible), but how on earth are they not desperate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulhanley Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Well now. What a delightful development. This seems to be following a similar track to our problems. Lots of problems and then along comes the saviour. But the saviour proves not to be a very nice person. Wigan it now appears are at the "El Chairman's notes" and the "El tank top" stage of proceedings. With any luck they will never reach the Michael James/Shazza stage.
