A consortium led by former Newcastle United co-owner Amanda Staveley is in discussions to acquire a 25% stake in West Ham United, the Championship club that was recently relegated from the Premier League. Staveley, who financed the takeover of Newcastle United alongside Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund, is now targeting a minority share in the east London club. The talks are ongoing, with details of the potential deal still emerging. West Ham, currently playing in the second-tier Championship, are seeking investment after their relegation. Staveley's consortium is understood to be in advanced negotiations, though no agreement has been finalized. The move marks Staveley's return to English football investment following her role in the Newcastle United acquisition in 2021. West Ham have not commented publicly on the reports.
