Reasons for US Investment in English Clubs
English clubs, especially those in the Premier League, are leveraging their global appeal to attract American investments, with American investors holding significant shares in many clubs—up to 68% in Manchester United and 97% in Chelsea. Data shows that 13 out of the 20 clubs in the 2025-2026 season are owned by American investors. This comes amid rising league revenues, which reached £6.8 billion in 2024-2025, with expectations to surpass £7 billion in the following season. These investments are happening alongside discussions to include Jeff Bezos in a consortium aiming to buy a stake in Liverpool Football Club, reaffirming the ongoing attractiveness of English clubs to American investors who see the value of football clubs as a growth-oriented sport and a strategic investment in the global sports market.
