The group is understood to be targeting the 25 per cent shareholding currently held by Vanessa Gold, who inherited the shares after her father David Gold's death and has indicated her willingness to sell. This potential investment comes amid a period of flux for West Ham’s ownership, with Czech billionaire Daniel Kretinsky poised to become the largest shareholder by increasing his stake to 43 per cent, though this transaction remains unconfirmed. Staveley, who previously backed the Saudi Arabia consortium that acquired Newcastle United and oversaw their rise from the relegation zone to Champions League qualification, has expressed interest in investing in clubs that are not performing well. Despite their recent relegation from the Premier League, West Ham has demonstrated financial resilience through player sales and strong fan support, having sold 50,000 season tickets for the upcoming Championship season.
