REVEALED: Kenny Huang tells Liverpool his backers are C.I.C, worth £330bn; no proof of funds yet

 

By Nick Harris

 

4 August 2010

 

Kenny Huang, the Chinese businessman linked with a takeover bid for Liverpool in recent days, has told the club’s hierarchy that he has the financial backing of the China Investment Corporation, China’s largest sovereign wealth fund with assets of $332bn, sportingintelligence has learned.

 

If this backing is proven to be true, it would be truly sensational, representing the wealthiest potential owner not just in the history of English football but in global sport.

 

But neither Huang nor any of his rival bidders have yet provided any proof of funding. Huang has not yet provided any firm evidence his backers are C.I.C.

 

In what is being described as a “hugely fluid” situation, Liverpool’s board is considering “five or six” proposals for the club. The situation is moving towards “put up or shut up”. No substantive developments are expected this week although the C.I.C claim will become global news in the next 24 hours.

 

If C.I.C’s involvement is confirmed – and questions to its offices in China today by sportingintelligence remain unanswered – it would be truly sensational. On the flip side, for that very reason, everyone at Liverpool is remaining cautious until proof arrives.

 

Sources in China remain highly skeptical. Our story on today’s earlier developments, including more details on Huang’s background and business interests, can be found here.

How would UEM (Don Vito Corleone) know the inside scoop?

[JohnnyH]

Why do you say that? I always thought UEM was a good poster on here.

 

He was and hopefully will be again.

 

A lot of people got very heated here last season (including me) as everything was just a mess so tempers were taught all the time. Andy seems a good bloke the little I've spoken with him and hopefully will be back here soon.

I'm hoping they give us an small insight into what C.I.C's plans are for the club.

WHATS GOING ON?

 

We've had a bid from jonny maktoum so redphil said.

Look into my eyes, I have lots of money, I will make your club great again. Look into my eyes, you're now beginning to......

[Roge C]

I always enjoyed UEM's posts. Why doesn't he post on here anymore does anyone know?

Go back a few posts and you'll work it out.

Missed that, cheers mate.

[Major Tom]

It's the hope that gets you in the end..

[Wezza]

It's the hope that gets you in the end..

 

Very true. So was it noodles or pitta in the end? I cannot comprehend why on earth I remembered that from earlier.

That post hit me in the most peculiar way. And the stars look very different todayyyy.

Benitez nearly ruined us

 

Haha!!

 

That's probably worse than your "I want David Silva to be our main summer signing"....he joins Man City "David Silva is fucking shit" or "No loss" regarding Fabio Aurelio's release......."great signing" when he rejoins.

 

And to think you complain about RAWK!

[Byrnie]

This is from his twitter page.

 

"Huang deal most certainly not dead, been asked for radio silence until resolution, apologies to everyone who's added me in the last 48hrs."

When did I say either of those things?

 

I said it was good news when he signed and Silva is shite. But when did I say the first two things?

 

And Benitez did nearly ruin us, we finished 7th you cheeky twat.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

And Benitez did nearly ruin us, we finished 7th you cunt.

 

He also did some other things, mate. Still, let's not turn this into a Rafa thread. I think I'd Huang myself of we went over that again.

[Anubis]

I think it's a shame Andy (UEM) didn't stick around. He was a good guy.

[Major Tom]

Rice funnily enough.
