Sarbjot Johal is in the process of buying League One club Morecambe. Despite apart interest from Tyson Fury.
Johal has been rumoured to be looking at the club over the past month. Talks between Sarb Capital and current owners, Bond Group Investments, are said to be exciting for both parties.
Morecambe’s co-chairman Graham Howse told the club’s website:
“Sarbjot, through his company Sarb Capital, has recently purchased equity in the club, injecting more than useful income into us.
“I am, along with Sarbjot, keen that the process should now move on at pace to come to a positive conclusion.”
Howse did admit that talks weren’t progressing as quickly as hoped, but is excited by what lays ahead for the club.
Johal Rather Than Fury
In October, heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury confirmed he’d been offered the chance to buy his hometown club.
Speaking to TalkSport, Fury told Simon Jordan:
“I’ve been offered to buy Morecambe Football Club.
“I own all the training facilities anyway and the training gym.
“So who knows? You might be looking at a football club owner.”
Despite the talk, it went no further than talk with Fury.
Johal’s potential takeover will be dependent on him passing the strict EFL owners and directors’ test.
