Each child was a different team And my sister punched me and said, ‘You have to admire Arsenal.’
“I was a fan of Arsenal, but my uncle was a Chelsea fan and I would go to games with him. I’m a sports fan, it’s the biggest sport in the world, Chelsea are one of the best teams in the world and when the opportunity popped up I said ‘wow, I can be a part of something big,'” he concluded. Hamilton.

In fact, the two stars have joined the acquisition team of Martin Broughton, former Liverpool chairman, who leads the team, which sent the Blues one of three valid offers still in the UK. For a short time, they are the two investors with the highest profile in the buying group.
A source close to the negotiations told Sky that Hamilton may in the future play an official role at the Blue Club, as part of Chelsea’s goal to promote diversity and equality. However, alongside this acquisition group there is also the acquisition group of Todd Boali, one of the owners of the Dodgers and also that of Steve Plioca, who owns shares in the Boston Celtics and Atalanta of Italy.
The two stars have in recent years begun to turn to such and such investments – Williams just last week announced a new investment in a British start-up dealing with sports technology, while at the same time Hamilton, known for his sympathy for Arsenal, invests in the development of relatively young companies and start-ups.
