The Chinese group is in constant debate whether or not to sell all of the shares
As most know, the owners of the RCD Espanyol they are the chinese group Rastar Groupchaired by businessman chen yansheng. Said company acquired the rights and 100% of the shares of the parakeet club in November 2015. Since then the team's offices have received offers to buy the club.
In the same way that the proposals arrive at the offices of the Chinese, he rejects them outright. However, the last one that has arrived at their offices he has had something thoughtful and has even met with the executive committee. Although they have not revealed the exact sum of the offer, it is believed that it is high enough to convince the asian group.
Who is the businessman or businessmen who sent an offer to the owners of Espanyol?
In reality, they are two of the richest American businessmen in the country, owners of several firms, different sports teams, and commercial chains. They are: zigy wilfwho owns the MLS's Orlando City and Nashville South Carolina soccer club, and the NFL's Minnesota Vikings.
The other businessman is Dan DeVos, with shares in Orlando City and owner of the Orlando Magic of the NBA. So they are not just any investment group, but a conglomerate specializing in the purchase of high-level sports equipment. For North American businessmen, Espanyol has enormous potential and that is why they want to acquire it.
The owners of Espanyol have no need to sell Espanyol but the doubt remains
There really is no certainty in the decision of the owners of the Catalan club to sell or not. And now less than Espanyol they already have their accounts leveled and out of any economic crisis. However, there is a possibility that the offer is much higher and ends up convincing Chen Yansheng and the investment group of him.
In the past, the Asian conglomerate had already rejected proposals of 200 million euros, for which the Americans will have to far exceed that offer. There is talk of a sum close to 300 million euros. It must be taken into account that if the Chinese group agrees to the operation, it will not sell all the shares. Another important detail is that if the Blue and Whites are relegated this season, there will be no deal.
