OM being targeted for purchase
http://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Article/Et-si-l-om-changeait-de-main-nbsp/33962
Saudi Arabian prince, Al-Walid, is looking to purchase OM for 100-150 mil euros. He's the 16th richest person in the world according to Forbes with a personal fortune of 21,7 billion. He spends all his holidays in France for decades apparently and his son was saved from paralysis in Marseille after a skiing accident.
Made much of his fortune through investments in the US and Europe as well as the Middle East actually... he has a bachelor's degree from Syracuse University in NY.
He wants to compete against PSG in France as he's been a OM fan since the 90s apparently. Friends with previous OM owner Bernard Tapie.

Monaco owner has personal financial issue for now... so that project is on pause for probably 2-3 years. They're going the Porto/Benfica business model route for now.

15 billion is barely enough to put food on the table these days tbf, just ask Berlusconi who's struggling with a measly 9 billion net worth

Re: OM being targeted for purchase
Colony Capital sold 70% of PSG to QIA for 40 million in 2011.... 100-150 million is a lot of money for a club in France. If there wasn't a new stadium, OM would be worth probably 70-80.

It's really not that surprising. Football clubs are terrible business models and have terrible profit margins, if there are profits at all.
