    Pretty much, he’s the majority shareholder. 

    But Randy Lerner sold Aston Villa.    And I believe LeBron is a minority shareholder in the Liverpool team....my team (if I really had one.....my uncle's team)

    Kroenke bought out a Russian billionaire's shares in Arsenal earlier this year. Arsenal fans have been blaming Kroenke for their lack of spending the last few years but it's a myth really, they spend fortunes on player signings and salaries and always have done. They just want an excuse for under achieving.

    I should probably point out I despise Arsenal, I might be a bit biased.

    There are some other Premier league teams that are also owned by people that own US Sports teams;

    Manchester United, own by Glazer family...owner of Tampa Bay Bucs

    Liverpool is owned by the Fenway Sports group, which owns the Boston Red Sox (If LeBron owns a piece of Liverpool it is not mentioned.)

    Fulham, owned by Shahid Khan  who owns Jacksonville Jaguars.

    Also, I found this:  Fulham... its principal owner is Joshua Harris who has a big piece of Apollo Global Management, which fairly recently purchased  Diamond Resorts International, which is who I have my timeshare through.

    Of the 20 Premier league team, only  7 seem to  have majority ownership by UKers...one by a Welshman.  That is the same number of which Americans own a majority interest;  three teams have Chinese majority interest; 2 by Russians,  1 each by Malaysians, Thai, Italian, and UAE.

    So, which one is your team?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenway_Sports_Group

    Aston Villa, which seems to have been relegated, now principally owned by  the Chinese.

    Billy Beane...he of Moneyball fame, has an interest in a lower level team:  Barnsely.

    Don't know if you are aware but the Thai owner died recently in a crash after his helicopter left the stadium following the game! It crashed down into the stadium car park, pretty crazy.

    My team is Tottenham Hotspur and we have a very fierce fan rivalry with Kroenke's Arsenal 

  • LOL! Those fans obviously don't pay enough attention to the game. I didn't see more than one go down with the fake knee injury.?
