Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan has been the owner of Manchester City since 2008, and the sheikh in the United Arab Emirates has seven other clubs around the world. Even though he bought the English champion, the 49-year-old businessman delegated Khaldoon Al Mubarak to lead the club that ranks 2nd in the first league in England.

In addition to his involvement in football, the Sheikh of Manchester City has also invested in Virgin Galactic, which handles spaceflight, and Sky News Arabia. Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan owns a luxury yacht with a catalog price of 400,000,000 euros.

Roman Abramovic started the billionaires who came to invest in the Premier League. The Russian businessman has an estimated fortune of £ 9.6 billion and bought Chelsea in June 2003. The Londoners became a top team shortly after the oligarch began investing, with the team winning the Champions League in 2012.

Liverpool changed its ownership in 2010, when the club was acquired by the Fenway Sports Group consortium owned by John Henry. The American businessman has an estimated fortune of 2.1 billion pounds and ranks only 12th in the ranking of the rich in the Premier League.

In addition to Liverpool, Fenway Sports Group also owns the Boston Red Sox (MLB) club, as well as the "Anfield Road" stadium, which it acquired when it bought the English team. John Henry has been the owner of the Boston Globe since 2013, after paying $ 70,000,000 in exchange for shares in The New York Times Company.
