Gaddafi to buy British soccer club?
2004-07-17
Libyan leader Colonel Gaddafi could buy newly-promoted Crystal Palace, according to newspaper reports. "I've been told that Gaddafi and his son are interested in acquiring Palace," the club's chairman Simon Jordan told the Guardian. He said that as yet there had been no formal approach from Gaddafi, who already owns 7.5% of Juventus. But Jordan, who took over Palace four years ago, added: "If it's beneficial to the club, it will be considered." However, he did concede a deal with the Libyan leader could prove unpopular with fans.
