West Ham have responded to rumours that Daniel Kretinksky is set to purchase some of David Gold’s shares, its been reported by ExWHUEmployee.

Following the departure of Karren Brady earlier today, there have been rumours that the Czech billionaire & major shareholder Kretinksky was set to increase his stake at West Ham, however Ex has advised that this is being denied by the club.

“One of the big stories to come out of all of this is that Křetínský is to purchase some of the late David Gold’s share to increase his percentage ownership,” stated Ex.

“We exclusively put this scenario to the club and ask if this was indeed the case and we quite simply got back the blunt email of “not true”.

“Now of course there isn’t much more I can take from that than you can but it does seem that the story of ownership is at the least not accurate.

“I am sure there is more to come on these shares and the board ownership make up and we will update you when we hear.”
