London, Dec 10 (DPA) Former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson is part of a consortium lining up a bid for League Two side Notts County, according to media reports Thursday.
Eriksson, currently County’s director of football, and Peter Trembling, the executive chairman, are believed to have teamed up with a mystery third backer in an effort to buy out the existing owners.
Trembling admitted last week to having “frustrations” with how the club was run. Eriksson last month demanded immediate payment of the multimillion-pound sum he claims he is owed by Swiss Commodity Holding, who are connected to the funding of the club.
Notts County were taken over by Qadbak Investments, a company registered in the British Virgin Islands in June. Eriksson was brought in on a five-year contract the following month.
