Sheikh Jassim has been invited by Finnish entrepreneur Thomas Zilliacus to join forces in a bid to buy Serie A giants Inter Milan.
The Qatari who is a member of the royal family has pulled out of the bidding to buy Manchester United.
Zilliacus is now hoping to convince the Qatari to join him in his quest to acquire the Milan-based club.
Reports claimed that the Finn has been in contact with the Nerazzurri owners, Suning in recent months.
He posted to social media: "I'm happy to see that you too have come to the same conclusion as me a few months ago.
"Now let's join forces, let's buy a top Italian club and make it the best in the world."
