Peterborough United are reporting Gianni Paladini to the Football League after alleging that he has made an illegal approach for Darren Ferguson on behalf of Nottingham Forest.
Paladini, who is understood to have claimed he was representing the Al-Hasawi family who are in takeover negotiations with Forest, has been accused of tapping up Ferguson, the Peterborough manager, and the Championship club are determined to take action.
Peterborough have confirmed they will submit an official complaint to the League regarding Paladini's conduct on Monday, while chairman Darragh MacAnthony is also cutting short a family holiday in the Bahamas to return home and begin an internal investigation.
Paladini, the former QPR chairman who made a significant impression in the documentary 'QPR: The Four Year Plan', is understood to have approached Ferguson even though the Al-Hasawi's are still yet to complete their takeover.
It is also believed the Kuwaiti multimillionaires are reluctant to dismiss Steve Cotterill, who guided the club to survival last season, at this stage which would render Paladini's actions even more bizarre.
