Show me the money. Qataris angry over claims they weren’t as loaded as they pretended
January 30 – Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al Thani is reported to be seeking legal advice after claims he didn’t provide proof of funds when trying to buy Manchester United.
According to Sky, Sheikh Jassim’s £4.5 billion debt-free bid included a bank guarantee signed by the chief executive of Qatar National Bank.
