🇺🇸 Hollywood actor Will Ferrell has joined Leeds United as a minority investor, as he buys a small stake in the Championship club to join the club’s general partners 49ers Enterprises, who already have a number of high-profile minority stakeholders.
⭐️ Ferrell, who is already a part-owner of MLS side Los Angeles FC, follows a number of celebrities to try their hand at football club ownership in recent years.
💰 The Leeds United investment group created by 49ers Enterprises, who completed a £170 million takeover last summer, is split into two sections, general partners and limited partners.
Will Ferrell falls into the category of limited partners, with celebrities who have invested at a lower level compared to the general partners, who are the source of the most serious funding.
