MK Dons Sold to Kuwait Consortium

MK Dons has been sold to a Kuwait-based consortium led by Fahad Al Ghanim, ending Pete Winkelman's 21-year ownership. The sale leaves the club debt-free and has been approved by the English Football League (EFL). Al Ghanim, whose family owns Kuwait SC, aims to invest in the club and strengthen its first team for the upcoming season. Winkelman, who oversaw the club's controversial relocation from Wimbledon in 2004, expressed pride in the sustainable business created but acknowledged the need for new investment to reach higher competitive levels. As MK Dons celebrate their 20th anniversary, Winkelman will bid farewell to supporters during the season opener against Bradford City. The transition marks a significant change in leadership and promises renewed hope for the club's future aspirations.
