I'm surprised they go as far as to specify it's a premier league manager; if it's investigations from the 90s by the police that implies they've been in England a long time which really narrows down who it could be.

I heard it was a certain West Ham owner...

David Sullivan was pictured coming out of a London bizzy station a few months back, around the time this story first broke.

The use of the phrase "boss" is intentionally vague as it suggests to the casual reader that it is actually a manager/coach that is responsible. Probably legal-driven slight of hand at work
