Highlands Park may consider 'unbelievable' offer

Highlands Park co-owner Larry Brookstone has revealed the Absa Premiership club received an 'unbelievable' offer that they will consider if it can be verified.

Brookstone explained that the club is currently not for sale but that position may be reconsidered by the size of the offer.

Bloemfontein Celtic were reportedly the subject of a bid in recent months, but the club vowed to seek investment rather than look to sell.

Tim Sukazi was reportedly behind the failed bid for Celtic, with Brookstone alluding to the fact that the TS Galaxy owner is now eager to secure the Premiership franchise of the Lions of the North.

He told the Sowetan: "It seems that everybody seems to be saying it is‚ so I must assume it is."

Brookstone added: "First of all Highlands Park is not up for sale. We had an unsolicited offer on the club.

"If the guy can deliver this kind of money then‚ yes‚ we would consider it.

Brookstone though admitted that the sudden speculation over the sale of the club may have an unsettling effect.

"This discussion, I'm regretting that we even listened to this unsolicited offer‚ quite frankly‚ because there is this speculation and it unsettles my players and everyone around me," he continued.

"It's not concrete. The offer is unbelievable. If they can deliver it then we will consider it.

"I'll tell you that in a weeks' time if you hear that I've sold the club‚ know for sure that a guy delivered on an unbelievable promise."
