It has also been reported that Sulllivan is in no rush to sell West Ham, who are an established club in the Premier League.
With son Jack being groomed as the eventual boss and the club investing over the last two years like never before there seems less likelihood than ever of the current owners being remotely interested in a sale.
He is currently of course in charge of the womens’ team which is presumably the start of a learning curve for his eventual accession.
The repeated aim is top six or even top four and at times such as this it’s strange that such a story should surface in the first place.
