Tony Bloom ‘spoke to Aberdeen’ before Hearts but was put off by one key issue claims former Dons CEO
There has been talk of a potential investor in Hearts showing interest in Aberdeen.
Tony Bloom’s interest in his previous side existed prior to Hearts, according to a former Aberdeen chief executive, and this was a major factor in ending his Dons efforts.
A £10 million investment agreement that would transform recruitment at Tynecastle is being discussed by the chairman of Brighton and the Gorgie-based Premiership team. Also, his analytics business is being utilised to assist in determining the future
Hearts manager following the dismissal of head coach Steven Naismith.
He was fired in the midst of eight straight losses across all competitions, which included a 2-1 Premiership setback to St Mirren last Saturday. Before Hearts, Bloom allegedly spoke with Aberdeen, according to Wyness, the former CEO of the Dons and Pittodrie employee from 2000 to 2004.
Wyness claims that Bloom has shown interest in Aberdeen; however, The Evening News is unable to confirm or deny this information. The former CEO claims that Hearts will receive more funding because it is rumoured that Bloom was delayed by the northeast stadium problem.
“I’d heard Tony Bloom spoke to Aberdeen before Hearts, but wasn’t happy with the stadium situation at Aberdeen,” Wyness asserted on The Inside Track Podcast.
Without a doubt, Bloom and his Brighton team are experts in their field; in fact, they have received a lot of acclaim, perhaps too much. However, Hearts’ access to adequate resources and a database would significantly impact the team’s performance on the football pitch.
That is something that should worry rangers in particular. Celtic has some breathing room and the tools necessary to meet the challenge. Rangers will undoubtedly be concerned about Hearts and Hibs gaining superior resources.
Aberdeen are also succeeding, and if they teamed up with a southern club, they might be the next big thing.
