Several international parties have registered an interest in purchasing a stake in the Hammers after Vanessa Gold revealed that she was willing to sell up to 10 per cent of her shares in the club.<\/p>\n<p>David Moyes\u2019 side have made a reasonably solid start to the Premier League campaign, sitting in ninth place in the table after winning four of their opening 10 matches. Following the sale of Declan Rice to Arsenal, West Ham splashed the cash over the summer to bolster their ranks and ensure that the departure of their captain was not detrimental.<\/p>\n<p>James Ward-Prowse, Mohammed Kudus and Edson Alvarez all arrived as part of Moyes\u2019 spending spree, and the Hammers could be hopeful of working with an increased budget in the future. According to The Times, West Ham are hoping that Sheikh Jassim \u2018could buy a stake\u2019 in their side.<\/p>\n<p>Vanessa Gold, the daughter of the club\u2019s late joint-chairman David Gold, recently announced that she was looking to sell up to 10 per cent of her stake in the Hammers. However, it is claimed that Ms Gold would also be willing to part ways with her entire 25 per cent share of the club if a sufficient offer arrived.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Man Utd &#8216;very keen&#8217; on Sacha Boey and player set to be on the market[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5044366.jpg?r=1698860416109\"><\/p>\n<p>The report goes on to state that West Ham insiders believe that the opening \u2018may attract an offer\u2019 from Sheikh Jassim after he failed to strike a deal with the Glazers to purchase Manchester United earlier this year. The billionaire was keen to complete a full takeover of the Old Trafford outfit but ultimately withdrew from the race after feeling that he was being quoted too high of a price for the club following several rejected offers.<\/p>\n<p>Sheikh Jassim remains keen to acquire a stake in an English club as soon as possible, being speculatively linked with making a move for Tottenham previously after Daniel Levy announced that he would listen to minority investment proposals. However recent reports have ruled out the Qatari billionaire buying Spurs.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Advert-free experience without interruptions.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Rocket-fast speedy loading pages.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Exclusive &amp; Unlimited access to all our content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5044368.jpg?r=1698860416208\"><\/p>\n<p>Ms Gold\u2019s statement is likely to catch the eye of numerous suitors, especially after Czech billionaire Daniel Kretinsky, who purchased a 27 per cent stake in the club in 2021, decided not to increase his share in Moyes\u2019 side. \u201cI would consider selling a proportion of our shares to the right partner,\u201d she announced.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have spoken to each of the other three major shareholders at West Ham United, David Sullivan, Daniel Kretinsky and Tripp Smith, who have been very supportive.
