New wires with the headline re Qatari fund looking at UK football clubs as acquisition targets.

  • English Premier League clubs Manchester United Plc, Tottenham Hotspur, or Liverpool FC are being targeted.
  • The fund is Qatar Sports Investments
  • fund is considering either a total takeover or a stake
  • the fund currently owns French soccer club Paris St Germain, and has a stake in Portuguese soccer club SC Braga

I guess at a pinch its GBP positive if so, on a flows basis. But not really forex related. Just extending the World Cup vibes!
