Hip-hop mogul P Diddy planning Crystal Palace takeover

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Thu, 03/18/2010 - 11:49

Hip-hop mogul P Diddy is preparing a shock takeover offer for Crystal Palace.

Diddy, real name Sean Combs, is planning to splash some of his reported £360million on the Selhurst Park side, says The Sun.

Last night his UK spokesman confirmed the multi-millionaire is in the market for Palace. He also added that the New Yorker has his eye on another big club.

A source said: "Diddy was in London meeting football fixers a couple of weeks ago. The finance is in place, he's just deciding who he thinks he'll make a bid for.

"Portsmouth were mentioned but he thought Palace were a better idea.

"He could cover their debt and bankroll a return to the Premier League. He liked the name as well."
