Turki Alalshikh Breaks Silence on Plans to Buy English Football Club
Turki Alalshikh had been linked with buying an English football club.
Saudi Arabian sports promoter and billionaire Turki Alalshikh has broken his silence on reports linking him with buying an English football club.
Over the last few years, Alalshikh has played a major role in bringing some of boxing’s biggest events to the Middle East.
In early 2025, it was claimed by ex-Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan that Alalshikh was interested in buying Championship side Millwall.

Jordan said on talkSPORT: “I’ve told him and tried to talk him out of Millwall because I don’t think it’s a proper football club, but that’s a different discussion. But it is Millwall, and he likes Southampton.”
The billionaire was also spotted commenting on a post from the club’s main social media channel.
Earlier in the month, reports emerged that Alalshikh was interested in another Championship club, this time in the shape of Bristol City.
Journalist Alan Nixon claimed via his Patreon that Alalshikh was preparing a bid to buy Bristol City from the Lansdown family.
Steve Lansdown first became Bristol City’s chairman back in 2002 and has since invested around £280 million into the club.
Back in February, Lansdown stated that a takeover was ‘not close’.
Now, the man in question has broken his silence on the reports linking him to Bristol City.

Taking to his official X account, Alalshikh wrote: “It is not true that I will buy Bristol City FC,” accompanied by a thumbs up emoji.
On the pitch, Bristol City reached the play-off semi-finals last season but failed to make it to Wembley after losing to Sheffield United.
This season, they have enjoyed a decent start after collecting 11 points from their opening six matches.
Gerhard Struber’s men suffered their first defeat of the 25/26 Championship season last weekend when they fell to a 3-1 defeat against Oxford United at Ashton Gate.
The Robins are back in Championship action this weekend when they travel to Deepdale to take on fifth-placed Preston North End.
