Reynolds and Rob McElhenney

Stat: Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney apparently knew what they were doing when they bought a struggling Welsh soccer club for $2.5 million in 2021. Wrexham was promoted for the second straight season on Saturday, which means they’ll play in League One next season and are now only two more promotions away from reaching the pinnacle of English soccer, the Premier League. Ryan and Rob are perhaps the most famous American owners of English soccer teams, but they’re far from alone: More than one-third of the 92 teams in England’s top four leagues have some form of US ownership, per Bloomberg.
