Hamilton: ‘I’ve been supporting Arsenal for 6 years but it’s an opportunity to buy Chelsea’

Lewis Hamilton admitted he has supported Arsenal since he was six but stressed that his love of sport in general led him to join efforts to acquire the Chelsea stake.

Lewis Hamilton and Serena Williams strongly back Martin Broughton’s bid to buy Chelsea and are each investing €12m to top up the fund, and that made a lot of sense as the seven-time F1 world champion has never hidden his sympathy for another London team: Arsenal .

Max Ferstappen took a negative stance with him on the subject The Dutch Red Bull driver said that as a friend of Eindhoven he would not buy traditional PSV rivals like Ajaxwhile emphasizing that if he were to buy a team, he would take the majority stake to make the decisions, and not a small stake.

Shortly after the Dutchman’s critical words, Hamilton gave his answer, making it clear that he is above all a man who loves sport and football in particular, who wants to offer the king of sport in every respect.

“I’ve been a football fan since I was a kid. I played football with all the kids and I was the only black kid in the group. All the kids supported something different. One was Tottenham, the other Manchester United.

I remember switching between those two teams when I was young and coming home to my sister Sam slapping me on the shoulder several times and telling me to support Arsenal. That’s how I became an Arsenal fan when I was 5 or 6 years old.

But my uncle Terry is a big Chelsea fan and I’ve watched several Arsenal and Chelsea games with him. After all, I’m a sports fan. Football is the biggest sport in the world and Chelsea is one of the biggest clubs and one of the most successful.

As I thought about the opportunity, I said, “Wow, this is one of the most amazing opportunities to be a part of something so amazing.”Hamilton emphasized in a press conference on Friday (April 22) with regard to his participation in the Imola Grand Prix.

The British star pilot pointed out that the consortium’s values are in line with his own and that if this bid is won, a long-term project will be undertaken, with both success and financial viability being key elements.

“Of course, the idea of investing is never to lose money. I want to be a part of something, lead this team that is moving forward, contribute to an improvement and make sure it doesn’t happen by slowly reducing this loss and transforming Chelsea into a profit-only organisation.

There isn’t a single part of this consortium that has the mentality to lose. “I really think Chelsea already have a winning mentality but we can do better.”
