The American ownership of English football clubs, including top clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea, is expanding to other types of clubs. Big money investors from the US, such as Tom Brady and Ryan Reynolds, are now targeting a different kind of club. This trend is part of an ever-expanding network of US owners in UK football, as reported by Bloomberg. Additionally, the NFL Players Association's new executive director aims for players to become shareholders in the league's franchises, while soaring valuations for NFL teams may challenge the league's traditional family ownership model. NFL franchises, once family heirlooms, are now multibillion-dollar businesses attracting interest from private equity.
