Doug King completes full purchase of Coventry City
The businessman had already bought 85% of the club.
Doug King has today completed the full purchase of Coventry City Football Club.
Following his purchase of 85% of the Club earlier this month, King has now purchased the remaining 15% of the Club that was owned by SISU Capital Limited.
Also today, the company name has been changed from Otium Entertainment Group Limited back to ‘Coventry City Football Club Limited’ - marking the start of a new era for the Football Club by returning to its traditional company name.
Doug King said: “To ensure that a new era for Coventry City Football Club begins with full transparency and clarity, I am happy to announce today my full, 100% takeover of the Club with my purchase of the 15% SISU shareholding.
“As outlined in my recent press conference, the Club at this moment has no debt owed to me or any other party.
“All future funding of the Club via any loans will also not be interest bearing whilst I am the Owner.
“This then concludes the change of ownership story.
“I am now totally focused on the balance of the season and the future thereafter, and following through on our plans to take this great Club forward.”
Speaking last week, King said his number one priority is securing the Championship club's future at the CBS Arena, which is owned by Frasers Group.
