Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold has become the latest sporting superstar to invest in the Alpine Formula 1 team, alongside Wrexham co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.
This strategic investment, made by APEX, includes other A-list athletes like golf legend Rory McIlroy, former world heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua, and tennis star Alexander Zverev.
Their involvement is part of a syndicate formed by Otro Capital, who acquired a 24% stake in Alpine for $200 million back in June. Hollywood actors Reynolds, McElhenney, and Michael B Jordan, with their ties to British football, were among the initial investors. Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce have also jumped on board.
Alexander-Arnold expressed his enthusiasm for the project, pointing to the exciting growth of Formula 1 on a global scale. “I am delighted to lead an investor group investing in Alpine F1,” he stated. “The opportunity is very exciting. F1 is growing massively worldwide and I look forward to contributing to that growth.
“The sport brings together teamwork, pinpoint accuracy and innovation in a pressure-filled environment, these are aspects of my game we have in common.”
