Soccer teams bought by wealthy Russians is nothing new, and this similar. But I was musing this morning about if a Saudi Prince tried to buy an American Football Team. I wonder how that would go over the with the fans of, let’s say, the Pittsburgh Steelers. Interesting to imagine!
This certainly isn’t new…didn’t it just happen with Manchester City?
