Hull City was put up for sale in 2014 and sold in 2022.

Hull City was sold when the Allams were in danger of having to fund it, in that period they trousered a non-returnable six million quid deposit from a buyer that didn’t complete, well over twenty million in interest payments to themselves, and many millions in group tax relief.
Abridged version, Hull City was genuinely up for sale when it suited the paper shufflers.
