Hip-hop and rap legend turned reggae rasta Snoop Dogg/Lion has reportedly revealed that he’d like to invest money into Celtic Football Club.
The superstar, who recently got immersed in UK culture whilst promoting a UK tour, is keen to join the Celtic football board, and wants to buy shares in the club - with the flashy lyricist willing to dip into his massive wealth to help the Scottish team.
Speaking to the Sunday Mail, Snoop said: “I've got a lot of interest in soccer. It's not a new thing for hip hop stars to invest in sports teams but it is a new thing for hip hop stars to invest in soccer teams. I see how passionate Celtic fans are about their team and I could see myself making an investment if any of the board wanted to sell.”
The American won’t be running the club any time soon but will be helping out by ‘bringing a bit of Snoop to things’, and also helping out with some transfers - with David Beckingham being the signing in Snoop’s sights.
“I would try and sign him up for a season but he is pretty happy over here. LA is home for him and his family now, but I would have to at least make that offer to my boy.”
