P. Diddy To Buy Crystal Palace Football Club?
P Diddy The club recently went into administration which could see it demoted into a lower sports division as British soccer teams which go bankrupt are docked points.
Diddy’s representative has confirmed he wants to invest in a UK club, although he has also been linked to Portsmouth, in south England, which is desperately in need of a backer.
“Diddy was in London meeting football fixers a couple of weeks ago. The finance is in place, he’s just deciding who he thinks he’ll make a bid for. Portsmouth were mentioned but he thought Palace were a better idea,” a source said. “He could cover their debt. He liked the name as well.”
The 40-year-old, real name Sean Combs, is said to be worth around £360 million. He is well known for flashing his cash, recently travelling to Britain from France to throw a £500,000 party to celebrate the release of his new album Last Train to Paris.
He is known to be a fan of expensive Cristal champagne, which costs over £100 a bottle.
