swfcGibbo Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 The start up world is littered with individuals who front a fun to grow a business. You see it very often that investors sink millions into a company who are all growth and no profitability. It's becoming more common with football. Someone well connected can easily put a fund together or take investment from a rich backer. The prize is the Premier League and that would be financially huge for these investors. Look how Burnley is structured. The purchasers haven't actually put up much capital at this point. It's largely structured in a way where the club is doing the borrowing. It doesn't really matter if Alonso has the cash personally or not. What's key is his football knowledge and whether he can create the club he's promised his investors he can create. I'm interested to see how this develops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right I might have got it wrong then, thought the advert one was supposed to be his twitter account as that seems to be how he usually seems to communicate.

0742 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I've got a few agents on Linkedin as well as performance directors or club scouts, seems to be a common thing on there, posting what players they're looking for or have available. Seems like a decent idea to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
