Fassone's position is interesting. He was the one who introduced the idea (through his connections) to complete the deal through Elliot, but he is also close to Li by virtue of his role. Either way, I think his position is secure no matter what.
My hunch is that Li will pay what is required by April 4. I think the amount of buyers waiting in the wings is exaggerated.
Let's hope for the best. I am getting tired of a couple of things:
1) the lack of transparency
2) the media constantly hurling shit our way
I wish I could say number 2 doesn't faze me, but it does, even if I know 1) fuels 2).
Fassone is safe just if we manage to refinance the debt or if Elliot takes over, he’ll see his contract out because he’ll be needed for the transition period.
After that new owners will bring their new AD.
The management position is difficult right now, they addressed the speculations every time it came up, even Yonghong Li sent a video message.
Players are getting their salaries on time and the club is moving forward from a sporting POV.
Believe it or not, the new shit storm came from what fassone said “we need 30m to finish off the season”. Which gave the media the necessary juice for their imagination to start writing.
At those specific cases the less you say the better since fans really have no interest in corporate events or moving hands. Those things must happen behind closed curtains.
