Former West Ham co-owner David Gold's daughter Vanessa has confirmed the family plan to sell their shares in the club to a consortium headed by ex-Newcastle co-owner Amanda Staveley.
BBC Sport previously reported Gold's family had been holding discussions with Staveley's consortium, which also includes her husband Mehrdad Ghodoussi, over a 25% stake in the Championship club.
In a statement, Vanessa Gold said: "I have now reached an agreement to sell my family's shareholding to a consortium of PCP Capital Partners, led by Amanda Staveley and Mehrdad Ghodoussi, in partnership with Ashland Forest Capital Partners.
"While the process has not yet concluded, I wanted to be open with our fans about where things stand and my intentions."
David Gold, who died in 2023, was joint chairman of the Hammers for 13 years in tandem with long-time business partner David Sullivan.
