Dozy Mmobuosi, a Nigerian millionaire, may soon purchase Sheffield United for £90 million.
This will be the second time a famous Nigerian has been associated with the acquisition of an English football club after Alhaji Aliko Dangote, the richest man in Africa, failed in his effort to purchase Arsenal a few years ago.
The Blades are attempting to return to the Premier League this season despite having a transfer embargo placed on them owing to financial issues last month.
Dozy Mmobuosi, a Nigerian internet entrepreneur whose business Tingo is valued at over £7 billion, is supposed to fix their difficulties.
They claim that the embargo, which prevents the Blades from making a player purchase for the following 18 months or until they are promoted, was put in place as a result of the Blades’ inability to make timely acquisition payments.
One of the players who earned money during this time was Rhian Brewster, a forward who cost Liverpool $23.5 million when he joined them in October 2020 but has fallen short of both his price tag and expectations.
