Laurence Bassini EXCLUSIVE: Businessman insists Bolton takeover is STILL ON and brands Ken Anderson a liar
Laurence Bassini has told talkSPORT he has assumed control of Bolton Wanderers, despite the club saying his takeover deal is off.The businessman has also accused current chairman Ken Anderson of telling lies about the deal, and assured staff and supporters he has the funds to save the in-crisis club.After several weeks of discussions, Bolton announced on Thursdaynight that the proposed sale to Bassini would not go through, after he failed to provide proof of funds to the EFL.3

Bassini has accused chairman Ken Anderson of telling ‘lies’ about his takeover bid

However, Bassini insisted on Friday morning he has a watertight contract which proves he now owns Bolton and is working to get the deal ratified by the EFL.He joined talkSPORT host Jim White on Friday morning to clear up the confusion surrounding his takeover.And he sensationally accused Anderson despised by supporters for his mismanagement of their club of lying to try and get more money for his shares. I had to do that today because of all the lies he [Anderson] is telling, Bassini said about his statement.If I let him continue the way he is, hes running everything into the ground, dont you understand?Nothing is getting paid. He doesnt care about this club. Hes trying to find someone else so he can get more money.On Friday morning, Bassini said he has instructed staff not to make any further statements, after the club announced that the takeover was off.Thats not correct, thats absolutely not correct,” he explained.All the heads of department have now seen the proof of funds and theyve also seen the contract that gives me control of the company.3

Bolton supporters have campaigned for Ken Anderson to leave their club

I have also, because of his behaviour yesterday, served a specific performance notice on Ken Anderson, which means he has to give up the share certificates to the company.I will deal with the EFL, Ill sort that out.I dont know what goes on at the EFL. They should have stepped in a long time ago to deal with these poor people up there, these people that are working up there are terrified, all of them. A lot of them phone me, crying, that theyre not getting paid.Today, what Im saying is, Im sorting out the mess thats there at the moment. Nobody knows what theyre doing, everything is a mess and everybodys worried.
