Foot – Mercato – ASSE
Charged by ASSE to communicate on the subject, the former journalist, Patrick Chêne, confirmed that Norodom Ravichak did not yet have access to the data room, unlike other candidates. And for good reason, the Cambodian prince has not yet provided the entrance ticket to 100M €.
On January 27, 10Sport.com exclusively announced that Roland romeyer and Bernard Caiazzo was planning to hand over and sell the ’ASSE. A few months later, in a letter published in the columns of the Progress, the two leaders, present in Forez since 2004, formalized their desires to leave. A new shareholder is therefore expected in the coming weeks in Saint-Etienne. Mandated by Romeyer and Caíazzo, lthe cabinet KPMG was intended to study the proposals and select the best projects. As indicated by The team, two files would have been retained. The one led by Olivier Markarian, former CEO of Markal, but also that of Norodom Ravichak. Cambodian prince, he formalized his interest inASSE in an interview with RFI : ” It is true that I officially applied to take over AS Saint-Étienne. My goal today is to take care of Saint-Étienne and all those who work to restore this club to its rightful place in French and European football. I want to invest for the long term and take care of ASSE. If we come to an agreement, I would provide sufficient resources to achieve these ambitions and allow Saint-Étienne to regain its splendor. Beyond that, I also want to promote French football and Ligue 1 in Asia by highlighting ASSE. I am thinking in particular of developing academies, a strong point of ASSE, in my country, Cambodia, and in other countries of the Asian continent.. “.
“The Cambodians are back in the race, but other candidates, for example, are certain to have access to the data room”
To get hold of theASSE, Norodom Ravichak, at the head of a fortune estimated at € 250m, would be ready to offer € 100m. But as suggested The team and progress, this project does not seem so advanced. Indeed, the Cambodian prince does not yet have access to the data room since he has not yet provided the € 100M entry ticket. Information confirmed by the former journalist Patrick Oak, loaded by theASSE, to communicate on this subject. ” They are in fact in contact with KPMG, which is studying their file. Ravichak and his associates do not yet have access to the data room where there are confidential documents on the club, on the “state of the assets” of the club in particular. The Cambodians are back in the race, but other candidates, for example, are certain of having access to this data in the coming hours. Personally, I find it unfortunate that it comes out so soon. Because if it happens, in two weeks or three days, KPMG will announce that the file is not admissible, and it will have boiled for nothing »He confided in remarks reported by So Foot. Other candidates may have a head start on Norodom Ravichak, which is very intriguing due to its alleged connection to some well-known people in the French league. The media evokes in particular the relationship between the prince and the brothers Besssedik, close to Nasser Al-Khelaïfi and based in Qatar. So nothing is done for the sale of theASSE. A folder that Roland romeyer hopes to complete before the end of the calendar year.
