But the reality of it is, even the biggest moron in the world wouldn't have done this. I mean, what possible benefit does he gain by buying Milan for above market price, taking on massive debt (and paying high interest on the debt) and then selling Milan for cheaper price (you have to assume he isn't selling for 1B at this point)? The logical part of me thinks that something must have gone wrong with his backers. Maybe some of the actual money men behind him backed out after the purchase was completed, and Li had to go scramble for cash because of it. It just wouldn't make sense otherwise. Either way, if this is the end of Li, it would certainly go down in history as one of the strangest takeover stories ever told. I give the man credit for his effort though. For a guy who has no money and were paying massive interest to Elliott, he still funded a 200M mercato last summer. A for effort.
