Departing Birmingham City managing director Karren Brady can see David Sullivan and David Gold taking charge of West Ham United.
The outgoing co-owners have been linked with a takeover bid for the Hammers and Brady told The Sun: "David Sullivan and David Gold have been linked with an Upton Park takeover, but under West Ham's present financial arrangements that would be madness.
"They're a great club and the two Davids are Hammers bred, so who knows."
