Kia Joorabchian, the man at the centre of the Carlos Tevez row, has
admitted he remains interested in buying an English club.
Joorabchian was initially seen as a potential buyer for the Upton
Park side and was at the centre of the transfers of Argentina duo
Tevez and Javier Mascherano.
An Eggert Magnusson-fronted consortium eventually took control of
the Hammers, who were handed a £5million penalty for breaching
league rules regarding third-party ownership due to the nature of
their agreement with Joorabchian's company MSI.
Now Joorabchian has conceded he could once again look to the
Premier League for possible investment.
He told BBC1's Football Focus: "If the right club with the right
investment opportunity comes up, we'll take a look at it.
"We're still very interested in having a club in the Premier
League. It's not for the near future, but I still haven't made up
my mind about when it would happen or if it would happen."
