There is talk of them selling a minority stake already in PSG.
So maybe they hold on to the rest until after the Olympics and then slowly start selling off more and more.

I already made this joke but like any good comedian who am I to not reuse material that works?
Herc is just scared that he will be sold to the Qataris to fill out their gas reserves considering all of his hot air.
tommyboyspurs you’re in for a long night!
......Nor sure he's gonna nail percentages on that thing tbh.
As soon as the industry got a look at the Chelsea process, all the clubs objectively worth more than Chelsea have started looking into the possibility of cashing out.
In all seriousness there does seem to be too much smoke for there not to be some fire at the moment.
Everything is always for sale but this does seem to feel a bit different.

Been a minute lads. Efforts to reduce the old internet consumption come and go.'Ello stranger.
Anyway, story is the same as it's ever been, the ENIC methodology ran out of runway several years ago, it's fundamentally change, cash out, or fail. The Qatari thing seems like a weird "all of the above", I don't quite get it.
Great post. Simple and to the point.
I could make it briefer by saying “ENIC, shit or get off my toilet” but i prefer your erudite assessment.
I wonder if this is anything to do with Lewis making the papers a fair bit recently in Argentina
There’s a lot of very unhappy people & cries of corruption regarding the land grabbing

what do/would the Qatar fund (or any other petrol statefund)want to buy a football club for ?
I can see why investors get a club (they hope to make a profit) is that what the petrol state funds want ?
i can see why Abramovich wanted to buy a club ( he wanted the glory, like the old time club owners, local guys made good)

Sportswashing
An association with a popular sport in UK which divert attention away from less savoury activities which they may be engaged in. A form of Public Relations
Lewis seems to have first bought land there in the 90's, first legal issues seem to arise in 2000's and continued since then ........ so seems unlikely ?
Just looking on Argentinian Twitter feeds it’s seems a fairly dominant subject . Not just him btw but the connected corruption of the Argentinian government & high courts.
maybe its because I'm an old guy but I really get sports washing, all counties do good things and bad things,
The Mail article goes against everything that we know so far. I wouldn’t trust it at all in respect of what’s happening.
For once I actually agree with him. It completely contradicts everything we know. Besides Joe Lewis hasn’t given an interview in 23 years of owning us but is suddenly going to inform The Mail of his plans. Give over, the journo is taking a massive punt here. It’s bollocks if you think it through.
As I understand it there was a meeting of a number of judiciary, politicians and others at Lewis ranch relatively recently (not sure he was involved though ) - seems to suggest they were talking about a wide variety of subjects (not Lewis related) that maybe they shouldn't have been colluding on ...... which is why the talk on corruption I suspect.
True but there could be people involved with the process that are trapping. This will involve lawyers and business consultants etc if formalised, broader than Lewis chatting to a Daily Heil journo
