Chris Kirchner, a fraudster, posed as a wealthy businessman to buy football clubs using embezzled funds. He nearly acquired Derby County and Sheffield United but faces fraud charges. His lavish lifestyle was funded by misappropriated money, leading to his downfall.
Dozy Mmobuosi put down £10m to buy Sheffield United. Over nearly two hours at London’s Dorchester Hotel he told @mjshrimper how his Tingo group of companies would bring European football to Bramall Lane. It was some tale. But none of it was ever going to happen.
Instead of owning #SUFC, Dozy Mmobuosi is facing fraud charges in the US - all of which he denies. But could his company’s allegedly “staggering” global scam have a more damaging impact? @mjshrimper on the man whose firm had less than $50 in the bank but nearly fooled them all.
