Five years after our first conversation as part of the “United States of Soccer” series, I sat down again with
@mrjordangardner to revisit the football investment thesis.
Several questions remain, as the industry hasn’t leveraged appropriately the influx of capital. Amongst the different topics we cover is:
How can Premier League and Championship clubs—with sold-out stadiums, global audiences, and record revenues—still lose money?
A candid discussion on multi-club ownership, debt, infrastructure, and the future of sports ownership.
We also touch base on the 2026
@FIFAWorldCup in North America, and what could be the short-term or lasting impact of it.
