(MENAFN) A Kuwaiti family is in advanced talks to buy the UK’s second tier football club Nottingham Forest, Reuters reported.
Fawaz, Abdulaziz and Omar Al-Hasawi said they were in talks with the estate of Nigel Doughty to buy the two-times European Cup soccer winners.
A statement from Forest’s board said Doughty’s estate had granted the Al-Hawasi family an exclusive period of negotiation.
