The news of a consortium coming in to invest in the club, looks far from concrete. Some believe this is an ongoing process coming close to shares being handed over.
Khun Top has earlier said the club is not for sale, and his aim is to see this through and bring the club in shape and climb back to previous hights.
Looking at the recent news from the club about the release and retained list of players, this is not really cooking my meal. To see this happening looks strange.
The fact that an investment group are eager to get their hands on the training ground, the stadium and the core of the first team squad, smells trouble. This does not add up as a news story. The academy, the women team and The Belvoir Drive training ground is not mentioned in this Alan Nixon story.
A local consortium are targeting Leicester City.

The group want to buy the stadium and training ground with a view to having a bigger share in the club in the future.

Why should Khun Top be eager to give away shares for someone who is after property and the playing squad. £100million is not enough to shake anything.
People investing in this type of assets will like to sell on or using the ground to something else. This is how investors work, and not having blue eyes and throwing good money after bad money. Leicester have a squad of players at the moment that can be sold for proper fees.
If someone comes in to part up the club in parcels to sell off, that will not happen. If someone comes in, it will be to secure the clubs future and use money to build a better and more substantial squad.
The fact that news about people willing to put money into the project is good, but with a life in the life of finance, no one throw money into a project if they are not to get it out with a profit long term.
The area around King Power Stadium is not much to talk up, as it looks far from a place for entertainment and enjoyment. The stadium in itself and the close area around looks in good shape, but the land close could do with an upgrade.
This area is not King Power owned. The Filbert Street Stadium, the former home of Leicester City, was demolished in 2003. The land was sold to private development companies, including GMD Developments. Today, the site is owned and redeveloped by various private property entities, featuring a mix of student accommodation and apartment complexes.
There were plans for a stadium expansion, but this looks to be on hold, not being in the top tier of English football. The plans looked fantastic, but is not on those acres we used to have the Filbert Street ground.
We are waiting for a lot of answers on crucial questions at the moment. Today we got the official news on players leaving and staying. We are expecting more in the days to come.
