AMIR KHAN has splashed out on a second home in Dubai – but has ruled out quitting the UK for good.
The Bolton-born boxer has also called in the lawyers to probe the alleged mismanagement of a wedding venue he’s building in his home town.
And he’s also eyeing spending £264,000 on another Rolls Royce to add to his super-car collection.
In a Q&A with fans on Instagram, the dad-of-three, who is married to Faryal Makhdoom, revealed he’d just splashed the cash on a pad in the Gulf state.
He revealed: “I would never leave UK but I have just bought a lovely holiday home for my family in Dubai.”
And he also said a new team was on board to finished his stalled wedding venue and lawyers were investigating the ‘mess-up’ leading to a substantial chunk of his cash disappearing in the scheme.
The millionaire told one fan he was ‘thinking of getting’ Rolls Royce new Cullinan – the firm’s 6.7litre SUV.
Khan revealed last month how he felt he had been ‘f***ed over’ on his £11.4 million venue.
The former unified light-welterweight world champion wrote on his Twitter account: “Current cost £11.4m.
“Hurtful “I’ve been f***** over somewhere. My money is blood money and to be treated like this is very hurtful.”
The Olympic silver medallist claimed the building work was done while he was ‘stuck in training camp’ and no-one involved will tell him where the cash has ‘gone or been spent’.
Khan, 33, had planned to spend £5m on the multiplex marriage venue.
It was to contain 18 bridal shops, three halls for receptions, a number of restaurants and a rooftop shisha bar.
The complex, which includes a 200-vehicle car park, was expected to create 200 jobs.
But the sportsman, who hasn’t boxed since July last year, said costs had soared and last year the partially constructed building was hit by fire.
