Al Fahim to hand over Pompey shares
Former Portsmouth owner Sulaiman Al Fahim is ready to hand over his
10% shareholding in the Fratton Park club to a supporters trust.
Al Fahim sold Pompey to Ali Al Faraj in October, just a
matter of weeks after he had bought the club Al Fahim, who was
named non-executive chairman, is ready to relinquish his holding in
the club.
"Currently I am working to transfer my shares to (the) Pompey
trust," he told the Portsmouth News. "I always believe football
clubs are owned by the community and not an individual.
"As individuals we always try our best but we look at the
business from our point of view.
"Football is not a normal business. It's a community matter.
It's better to be co-owned between the supporters and the
businessmen. And I consider myself as one of the supporters."
