West Ham shareholder Daniel Kretinsky is not looking to sell his shares in the club, Claret & Hugh can exclusively reveal.
This comes after reports emerged yesterday suggesting the Czech billionaire had grown frustrated with West Ham. Some mischievous stories even hinted at growing tension with chairman David Sullivan—claims which have been described as completely false.
The reaction to the rumour that Kretinsky could offload his £200 million, 27% stake in West Ham has been swift and decisive. Multiple sources have dismissed the speculation as nonsense.
One of our top sources told us: “It’s nonsense. Daniel is more likely to buy the club outright than sell his shares.”
Claret & Hugh has also been informed that West Ham chairman David Sullivan and Kretinsky get along very well. One well-placed source with excellent contacts inside the club said: “Kretinsky is a really nice guy, but he doesn’t have time to be worrying about West Ham. He’s got too much going on with Royal Mail. West Ham are just one of many investments.”
And within the last five minutes, we’ve heard again from our top source at the London Stadium: “He has zero desire to leave, so the story is totally irrelevant.”
As denials go, this one was pretty unequivocal… Kretinsky is staying.
Daniel kretinsky will end up owning the club . These rumours could be him giving Sullivan the hurry up .
Pathetic investor for us he dosnt give 2 shits about us…I wish he would sell up ..because since he’s been our so called investor he has done absolutely sweet FA …..we all.know he’s a billionaire god kows how many times over..and I read somewhere that his company or whovever give well not give but allow him to invest 200million Every year or 6 months…nothing to do with post office or whatever pies he has his fingers in ..this is just apparently just a bitv of fun where he can just do what he wants with 200 mil every 6 months I think actually not a year …the blokes a knob and has no interest in helping us one.bit
Wouldn’t it have been sense to get in touch with the club first rather than copying someone’s else’s article and I agree with you Gav.

Please can we only report on facts not ridiculous rumours.
