Brighton and Brentford are both looking into potential partnerships with Dundee United . The interest comes on the back of the SFA ’s decision to allow Bournemouth co-owner Bill Foley to buy a minority shareholding in Hibs. Their English Premier League rivals are both now looking at the possibility of investments of their own north of the border. They are both looking closely at the Scottish Championship leaders although interest is still in the early stages.
Brighton chairman Tony Bloom also has an investment in Belgian side Union Saint-Gilloise and is keen to see if a deal can be done in Scotland. Brentford owner Matthew Benham invested in Midtjylland but has since sold his majority-holding in the Danish club. Bees technical director Lee Dykes has already been up at United games in recent weeks.

They remain top of the Championship and if they make a top-flight return then it would make them an even more attractive proposition for investors.

Scottish football is also becoming more and more attractive to overseas investors. There is American interest in buying both St Johnstone and Dundee Unite
