Rangers administration: Club 9 Sports deny takeover bid
The administrators have yet to name a preferred bidder
CHICAGO-based firm Club 9 Sports have distanced themselves from buying Rangers via a statement on their website.
They confirm that they were involved in a consortium looking at buying Rangers but said they themselves would not be bidding for control of the club.
In a statement on their website, they said: “We can confirm that representatives of Club 9 Sports have been involved with investigating, analysing and considering a potential purchase of Rangers Football Club, plc on behalf of a group of interested parties from the US and UK.
“However, at no time has Club 9 Sports itself offered a bid to acquire the club. Our role has been as a member of a proposed consortium.
“We can also confirm that we have not met with, spoken to or otherwise been associated with Craig Whyte in any way.
“Furthermore, Club 9 Sports will not be bidding for control of Rangers Football Club, plc.”
