    The Austrian-based energy drinks firm are on the look-out for a suitable club, with Anglophile coach Ralf Rangnick, sporting director of Red Bull Salzburg, heading the search.

    As well as current Austrian league leaders Salzburg, Red Bull already owns clubs in Germany, New York, Brazil and Ghana.

    The company’s sporting assets also include two Formula One teams: Red Bull Racing and Scuderia Toro Rosso.

    Now coach Rangnick, who almost got the Everton job in the summer, has been tasked to find a club in England for their latest move into ownership.

    An insider in the deal said: “Red Bull want a team to take into the Champions League. It is the only market they have not reached yet. Ideally this would be in the London area, but both Everton and Liverpool interest them too because it would not take much to get them to that level.

    “They have looked at the Championship, but you can spend fortunes there and not make any progress.”

    Rangnick, an English-educated German, has a good knowledge of the game and is looking at several options. He would also oversee the *purchase and running of the club.

    News of Red Bull’s interest is spreading rapidly and there should be no lack of willing sellers.

    The company’s Formula One success, with Sebastian Vettel taking them towards a fourth straight title, has put them on the map, but buying a club in the ‘home’ of football could be their biggest coup yet.

    And taking it into the Champions League is the ultimate aim for one of the biggest sports-backing firms in the business.



    This is quite an old article btw

    London clubs and Merseyside.

    I reckon Everton must be the main target for them.

    Or West Ham with the move to the Olympic stadium. That will be good enough for the Champions League.

    Im not completely against the idea tbh. Some serious backing is what we need. I love Ellis, but will he put the amount of money into us RB would? Dont think so. Only thing is Ellis would run us very efficiently, but will we amount to anything other than relegation candidates? Dunno, so long as they dont touch the strip, the colors, name, or the badge im happy. Dont believe it though.
