John Textor has registered his interest in Sheffield Wednesday with the owner, Dejphon Chansiri, and is poised for talks over a potential takeover of the troubled Championship club, the Guardian understands.
The American businessman is understood to have sounded out Chansiri’s representatives in recent days and wants to schedule a meeting with him for next week after flying to the UK. The asking price for Wednesday is thought to be about £100m, although it remains to be seen whether Textor would be prepared to offer that much.
