Investor Ismaik issues warning to Thoma in Arizona, implying severe consequences "that will leave you with no way out"
In a shocking turn of events, Hasan Ismaik, the Jordanian millionaire and former majority shareholder of TSV 1860 Munich, has expressed deep concern over the serious accusations levied against Matthias Thoma, a potential buyer in the deal.
Thoma, a 57-year-old German-born businessman residing in Switzerland, was rumoured to be the new investor in the German football club. However, Thoma clarified that he was never the buyer himself but acted as a mediator for the actual investor, Helvetic Corporate Finance SA, a Swiss company.
The controversy surrounding Thoma stems from the breakdown of the share sale transaction. Thoma (or the investor he represented) was unable to provide satisfactory proof of financial capability by the agreed deadline, causing Ismaik to pull back from the deal, maintaining control of the club.
The aborted sale also stirred controversy with accusations that the previous club board bypassed proper procedures, such as conducting due diligence on the investor before finalizing the sale, which fueled criticism and internal conflict. No criminal or formal legal allegations against Thoma have been overtly reported, but the incident has been described as a chaotic episode marked by unfulfilled promises and mistrust among involved parties.
Ismaik, however, has been vocal about his suspicions. He has claimed to have received information from credible sources, including journalists and fans, that raised doubts about Thoma's integrity. Ismaik has demanded proof from Thoma regarding his financial capability, true role in the deal, and the identity of the real buyer. He has accused Thoma of potentially being an actor in a staged play to glorify certain figures. Ismaik has labeled Thoma as being accused of being a fraud and a swindler.
Ismaik has threatened Thoma with "legal and social consequences" for his actions and has promised to recover damages in the millions for TSV 1860 Munich. He has also accused Thoma of being involved in a conspiracy theory regarding his hiring. Ismaik's demand for Thoma is in the form of an appeal in the AZ (Arbitration Court).
It is worth noting that Thoma's family holding operates in Germany, Canada, Switzerland, and France. Thoma is not a stranger to the German justice system, having a history of convictions in the past for damages following investment promises. These past convictions involve damages preceded by investment promises.
The AZ (Arbitration Court) has already received information about Thoma that does not portray him favorably. Ismaik has expressed his demand for Thoma to reveal the whole truth about the deal instead of fueling suspicions.
In a surprising turn, Ismaik is entitled to approximately eight million euros as part of a planned damage claim. He has vowed to use this money to help TSV 1860 Munich recover from the failed sale.
As the situation unfolds, the football world watches with bated breath, waiting to see how this dramatic turn of events will affect the future of TSV 1860 Munich.
