Despite mounting pressure from supporters and frequent protests directed at majority owners ENIC, the Lewis family has moved to stifle any talk of a takeover. They emphasized that their focus remains on a long-term rebuild rather than an exit strategy. The family's statement was clear regarding their future involvement, aiming to reassure fans that financial backing will be provided to transform the squad and infrastructure.
"We are not selling the club. We are all in. We are investing in it. You will see more of this in the coming months," the family declared. "This will require investment – in our teams, the academy, our backroom functions and more – and we are fully committed to this. Our ambition is to recapture the spirit of the club and bring back the excitement, the fearlessness and the bold football we have always felt defined us. That means football comes first. The Board and Executive team have laid out their plans to meet this ambition."
