Three months after their promotion to the Premier League, in August 2011, the 59-year-old took over as the club’s majority shareholder at Loftus Road.

In recent years, Fernandes’s influence at the club has diminished, and it was officially revealed a few months ago in July that he was no longer involved with the Rs.

After leading the company for 12 years, he sold his shares.

However, after making his LinkedIn post, Fernandes—who owns Air Asia and Caterham Group—has actively courted criticism.

After writing, “It was a stressful week and Veranita Yosephine suggested a massage,” the Malaysian went viral—but not for the reasons he had intended.

I adore the culture of AirAsia and Indonesia, which allows me to have management meetings and get massages.

“We are moving forward quite quickly, and I have now completed the Capital A structure. exciting times are store. We are proud of what we have accomplished and have never lost sight of the goal.”

He posted an image of himself getting a massage at the office while partially nude, with his iPad resting on a table, to go along with the message.

However, Fernandes has received backlash from fans on social media for the strange tweet.

One person wrote: “No shock we’re in the state we are considering this whopper was running our club.”

Another inquired: “Was this the kind of stuff he was doing at QPR in order to get so relaxed that he was able to sanction the ridiculous overspending in 2012/13 that lead to their relegation and time in the wilderness.”

Another replied, “Imagine logging into a zoom and your boss is just topless getting massaged whilst you run through a presentation.”

A fourth person said: “Imagine logging into a zoom and your boss is just topless getting massaged whilst you run through a presentation.”
