After Ryan Reynolds buys Wrexham AFC, Michael Jordan becomes a minor owner of the football team Bournemouth AFC

Ryan Reynolds’ Take Over of Wrexham AFC Inspires Another MCU Actor, Michael B. Jordan to Buy a Soccer Club

Michael Jordan is set to enter the soccer league. Not as a player though, but as
a co-owner. The Black Panther actor seems to have taken inspiration from Ryan
Reynolds who recently purchased the Welsh football team Wrexham AFC. But then,
the idea of expanding the pool and investing in businesses, especially sports is
becoming more common among celebrities.



The Bournemouth team came into being somewhere around 1899. It has now been
purchased by the American businessman Bill Foley. Joining him as co-owners will
be Nullah Sarker, who co-founded Kosmos sports. With Michael Jordan, they not
only add a Hollywood actor to the list of owners but also the first black person
to do so.

of AFC Bournemouth. The southwestern team has welcomed their new owner Bill
Foley through a statement, “Bill is committed to increased investment in
Bournemouth’s first team as well as the academy and fan experience at Vitality
Stadium.” The team was valued at a total of £120 million ($149 million).



The plan of action will now be to provide better training and help the team
grow. As for Jordan, he has just joined the club of celebrities investing in
sports. Ryan Reynolds, [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/ryan-reynolds/] along with
Rob McElhenney, purchased the Welsh team Wrexham AFC recently for 2 million
euros. He even began a Welcome to Wrexham docuseries in order to promote the
fanbase of the series while they bring it back to its glory. This ofcourse has
resulted in great success and greater exposure for the team.

Mindy Kaling of The Office also has a stake in Swansea City FC, while Natalie
Portman is a part owner of the Women’s Soccer Team Angels AFC along with Serena
Williams. There are many more such examples. Perhaps what helps is the already
existing fan base that these celebrities have, which helps the team as well.
