Brian Laudrup 25 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 FOOTBALL showman Milan Mandaric has launched a bid to become the next Mr Rangers.SunSport can reveal the Serb, 73, has noted interest in taking over with Gers' administrators.It's a stunning twist in the story that has rocked Scottish football as the current Sheffield Wednesday chairman looks to take over the stricken champions.Mandaric is one of those who have told the administrators now running Gers they want to take over from the Craig Whyte regime.Former Portsmouth and Leicester chief Mandaric has just emerged not guilty from tax evasion charges alongside his close pal and Spurs boss Harry Redknapp.Now he wants to add Gers to the list of clubs he has bossed.Yesterday Paul Clark of Rangers' administrators Duff & Phelps said: "As administrators we also have a duty to look at other expressions of interest in the club."To date we have had several such expressions of interest and these will be examined in the forthcoming days and weeks. I will not comment on them individually."SunSport, though, this morning reveals the identity of the man whose desire to buy Gers will intrigue Rangers fans most of all.The multi-millionaire made his fortune in the computer boom in California's Silicon Valley in the 70s.He owned San Jose Earthquakes in the States then looked to European football, owning first Belgian club Charleroi then French outfit Nice.In 1998 he moved to take over Portsmouth and made them a huge success under the leadership of Redknapp.He has since had a tempestuous reign in charge of Leciester before moving to buy troubled Sheffield Wednesday for just £1 and agreeing to settle the club's debts as part of his takeover.There is nothing to stop Mandaric staying put at Hillsborough and also launching an audacious swoop for Rangers.The only barrier would come under the rules of 'common ownership' if the clubs clashed in Europe and with Wednesday languishing in League One that is hugely unlikely.As former Gers director Paul Murray once more tries to piece together a consortium to buy the sticken SPL champs, the proposed Mandaric swoop will spark huge debate amid a fretting Gers support who are now poised to sell out Ibrox for tomorrow's showdown with Kilmarnock.Read more: http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/spl/4135558/Milan-Mandaric-I-want-to-buy-Rangers.html#ixzz1mand5xWd Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
