MILAN - AS Roma said on Monday it was in talks with a group led by U.S. billionaire Dan Friedkin about a sale of the Serie A soccer club, though no formal deal had yet been agreed.
Europe’s top soccer clubs have drawn in big money from some of the world’s richest investors over the last decade, as the game attracts more fans in lucrative markets such as Asia, the United States and the Middle East. AS Roma last changed hands in 2012 when it was taken over by a group of U.S. investors led by James Pallotta, who became the club’s president.
It is currently playing in the Europa League, the second tier European club competition, after finishing sixth in Serie A last season - when the Agnelli-owned Juventus won its eight title in a row.AS Roma’s current owners have been trying to sell it for a while, holding talks with various potential buyers, amid growing frustration with local authorities over a stalled project to build a new stadium.
