Exclusive: @WBA have agreed to sell club to a Chinese group.The deal will be completed around September once due diligence is completed #WBA
It's from the well known Indy guy on Twitter who tends to get 80% of deals before the media.

September??? Even the Tories managed to get their takeover done quicker than that.
It may or may not be true, but if it is then I worry about the effect on possible transfers during this window.

If the "source" for this is the guy on Twitter who calls himself Indykaila, then he's a notorious bullshitter who spends every transfer window spinning yarns. He actually works in a KFC, but has carved a niche for himself on the internet by telling tall tales. Nothing he says is worth paying attention to.

@truebaggie To be fair, Tony, I get a little offended when people say "any truth?". If there wasn't, I wouldn't tweet it. Lose credibility

Well if it is Wanda they have released a statement today saying they will be making a major announcement on Tuesday (tomorrow) at 11:00 am Beijing time (04:00hrs here).
"Wanda has yet another announcement to make. Look for news Tues. 11 a.m. China. Press event: Sofitel. 7F, Beijing."
So who knows just maybe when we get up we may have a new owner, or we may not. But at least we will know about whether Wanda is in the running.
