Ipswich Town, a newly-promoted Premier League club, has one of its most famous fans invested in the league.
After being promoted to the Premier League, Ipswich Town enthusiast Ed Sheeran used some of his money to purchase a small interest in the team.
The Tractor Boys will launch their first top-flight battle since 1992 at apartment to Liverpool in Saturday's midday kick-off after completing back-to-back incentives to move from League One to the Premier League.
Singer Sheeran has purchased a 1.4 % interest in the club and continued to sponsor the club's shirts throughout that incredible fall. In returning, he may have ' long-term use of an executive field at Portman Road stadium, which he has personalised ahead of the 2024/25 time.'
Matt Holland joins Ipswich Town table
Ipswich made a place of pointing out that Sheeran's investment in Gamechanger 20 is" a quiet and minority purchase merely" and that he has not been appointed to the team board.
I'm really excited to have purchased a small portion of my home sports team, Sheeran said in a membership statement. It's any basketball player's desire to be an operator of the team they support, and I feel so grateful for this option.
I've lived in Suffolk since I was three years old, and Suffolk and Ipswich have often made me feel safe and connected to the area. Despite my travels and occasional feeling like an outsider in large cities, I often feel like an outsider.
" It's such a pleasure to be a lover of Ipswich Town. Sports has its ups and downs, but it's all about the highs and lows. Please do n't contact me with signing suggestions or game strategies because I'm not a voting shareholder or board member because this is just me giving money to the club I love and they're returning the favor!
But, Ipswich's board of directors has changed, with former league adviser Matt Holland joining.
Past Milwaukee Bucks owner Marc Lasry is joining Holland, while former Florida Panthers owner Travis Viola has joined the Gamechanger 20 table. A consortium that earlier this year purchased 44 % of Gamechanger included the pair.
