Two British Michael Jackson fans are attempting to buy Neverland Ranch to save it from being repossessed.
Businessmen Liam Collins and David Bone have launched a £15 million bid to buy the California estate after the singer fell behind with his repayments.
The 2,800-acre property will be
foreclosed and sold at auction unless Jackson pays off a £12.5 million debt by March 19.
The Newcastle-based pair have offered Jackson the chance to rent it back if they are successful.
Bone, 26, told the
Daily Star: "We really want to see Jacko back on his feet. He's had a real hard time of it."
Collins, 29, added: “If it wasn’t for Michael’s music and his fantastic dance routines, it is possible that we wouldn’t be where we are today.”
Both men claimed to have started earning their fortunes by copying Jackson's moves while busking in London.
