Lots of sources but so little information on the buyers themselves.

Why do people think it's Wanda?
I think it's because of what I posted earlier, but I did add the rider that my man doesn't get it right every time.

Does he actually know something or is it a guess...a calculated guess, purely based on the fact they have an interest in football based on owning 20% of Atletico Madrid?
Not guess work, he has a connection to the club.

CSI Aston doesn't sound very good though does it?

...well I've just gambled and stuck £20 on us to win the Championship @16s...

If by tomorrow morning the odds have tumbled to evens then I'll know it's Wanda. If they have shot out to 25s then I'll know it's Chinese Tony from Wok U Like...here's hoping.

When I hear the words 'Villa' and 'consortium' in the same sentence, I die a little inside.

I'm hearing that Tony Xia, a Chinese businessman, has bought the club. Lock stock and barrel.
