Castleford Tigers: Prospective new owner granted April deadline for takeover

Advertisements

The prospective new owner of Castleford Tigers has been granted an extension to try to complete his purchase of the club.

Property businessman Martin Jepson had been given until 31 January to take up the option to complete a takeover, but that has not been met.

In a statement, the club cited some areas of due diligence that required “deeper investigation, external“.

As a result, it has been agreed by all parties to extend the deadline until the end of April.

Lifelong Castleford fan Jepson will continue to run the club in the meantime, having taken operational control in October from the Fulton family.

The Tigers begin their Super League campaign on 14 February away to Hull KR, having finished 10th last season.
