HULL KR have this morning confirmed the club has been holding talks with businessman Tony Larvin over a potential 'substantial investment' into the club.
The Robins released the statement 'in light of recent coverage in the media', confirming talks had taken place both before Christmas, and again this week.
The Mail understands Larvin has pledged to invest a total of £15m into the Robins, with the 48-year-old telling the Mail his first payment – thought to be £5m – is 'imminent'.
A club statement on Rovers website this morning said: "In light of recent coverage in the media we can confirm that club representatives have met with Tony Larvin regarding a substantial investment in Hull Kingston Rovers.
"Those meetings took place prior to Christmas, and again earlier this week. At this stage there will be no further comment until such time as the necessary proof of funds has been delivered to the club."
