Proper investigative journalism from me on the bloke who's about to buy West Ham.

Age - mid 30s.

Facts about him:

1. In 1999, (aged in late 20s?) bought the Russian newspaper Kommersant. Rumoured at the time to be buying it on behalf of Boris Berezovsky (a Russian oligarch, exiled in UK. Often said to be man behind Abramovich.) Kommersant was subsequently sold to.....Abramovich.

2. KJ bought Corinthians (the club that sold the Argentinians) and Berezovsky offered to pay to fund the building of a new stadium.

3. KJ is friends with Pini Zahavi - Israeli 'super-agent' who brought Abramovich to Chelsea.

4. Rumours abound in Brazil that it's all just a money-laundering front.

So all roads lead, if not to Abramovich, then at least to Berezovsky which may ultimately be the same thing. Premiership football becomes little more than a cash rich sideshow to launder the billions stolen from Russia in the nineties and no one bats an eyelid. Incredible stuff.
