| Wrexham FC Administrator Steve Williams |
WREXHAM FC's administrator says
he cannot comment on a claim that a legal technicality is preventing a buyout
deal being struck.
Surrey businessman Andy Smith is confident a deal could be made soon although he
has said certain legal issues had to be ironed out first.
Although owner Alex Hamilton is also hopeful about Mr Smith's bid, he has since
said the fact that former chairman Mark Guterman has frozen his assets involving
Wrexham FC is holding up the talks.
Mr Guterman has denied the claim and his representatives say talks are being
held over the freezing order.
The club's administrator Steve Williams said he couldn't comment on the claim.
"It is litigation which I am unaware of," he said.
Mr Williams' main role is to agree a consensual sale for the club which is to
the satisfaction of all parties, including the creditors and Mr Hamilton.
