Tony Fernandes was at West Ham United for Saturday's 2-0 win over Portsmouth.

The Sun says Malaysian entrepreneur Tony Fernandes was sitting nearby former Birmingham City co-owners David Gold and David Sullivan.

The Air Asia owner, like Gold and Sullivan, is a lifelong Hammers fan and has already held talks with the club about buying a 51 per cent stake.

His offer is viewed by many as the main rival to the Gold and Sullivan deal.
