Morecambe FC Says Deal Agreed 'in Principle' for Sale of Club
Morecambe FC faces financial challenges and suspension but aims for stability and a positive future through the sale to Panjab Warriors, with legal steps underway.
- On August 14, 2025, Morecambe Football Club announced that it had reached a preliminary deal to transfer ownership to Panjab Warriors.
- The sale comes after the club was suspended by the National League amid financial difficulties, prompting worries it might suffer a similar fate to Bury, who were expelled in 2019 over comparable financial problems.
- The Bond Group currently holds the majority shareholding and issued a statement thanking staff for their patience and apologising for stress caused amid the transition.
- The club confirmed that the necessary legal agreements are currently being drawn up and that prompt actions are being taken to notify important parties, such as the National League.
- Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer expressed concern last week and urged all involved to "do the right thing," while the club hopes the deal ensures future stability on and off the pitch.
