    A want to look a t he books
    B look at the contarcts of the merchandise you are buying (with the approval of the player0
    c look at any agreements the club has with advertisers and sponsors etc
    if you could do that in a week so be it

    im sure even the club said this could take several weeks /months

    thast before they start negotiating a deal
    well aye, if you have a one man band looking at everything.

    however a large company with a team of experts could complete it as quickly as they want to by putting extra people in to get through the work

    I don't know where journos get their information from but the Chronicle are saying due diligence is halfway through and should be completed before Xmas,I still think it depends on what offer Amanda puts on the table and how long it will take Ashley to come to an agreement.

    you would need the players permission to look at his contract for a start

    i would say at least 8 weeks and proabaly longer from when it started
    and as some have suggested a week im nearer the mark

    if you was buying a secoond hand car dealers maybe a week but a multi million pound turnover company with many many contracts no way

    Rubbish. The player holds a copy of a contract and so does the club. Under due dilligence, the potential buyer can look at any document held by the club.

    The process will take time though.

    no you don't need players permission. by law the "new employer" has to be given this info before any takeover takes place.

    initially the info may be given with names removed - so anonymous - if more than 1 potential new employer.

    according to the govt that is,

    That's common sence which I see lacking in Pboro's quoted reply.

    The companies who do due dilligence have several frontmen each suitably expert in his own domain and dozens of additional staff to do the running around and donkey work.

    You would expect any successful businessman or entrepreneur to know that. But hang on----- says someone who on a former post showed he didn't know the difference between freehold and leasehold yet claims to be a successful property owner.
