Barbados native, Rihanna, 26, is reportedly planning to buy a British soccer club. The singer according to sources is “really serious” about setting up a sports academy in Barbados and then becoming the chair or owner of a team in England.
According to reports from femalefirst, she is getting some advice from her friend and Chelsea football player Didier Drogba. “At first we thought Rihanna’s desire to be involved with soccer on a business level would soon blow over.
“We figured she was still on a high from the World Cup. “But now it’s becoming clear she really is serious,” said a source.
“She’s talking about setting up a football academy in her native Barbados. Then her big dream is to be involved with a UK club,” added the source.
“Britain is like a second home to her, although she’s also hinted she may do something with an LA (Los Angeles) team,” said the source.
