A Thai consortium are in talks over a £40m takeover of ChampionshipBolton Wanderers after being approached by the cash-strapped club, local media reported on Wednesday. Bolton, however, denied they had been in sale discussions with anyone from Thailand, reports Reuters. BEC-Tero, an entertainment conglomerate, are the reported interested party.
Wanderers chairman Phil Gartside confirmed the club had talked to different parties about a sale but said no discussions had taken place with anyone from Thailand.
"We have spoken to several parties who have expressed interest in investing in the club but these quotes from Thailand come as a complete surprise to me," he told the Bolton News.
"Other than what has appeared this morning it is business as usual here."
