Real Madrid captain and former Ballon d’Or winner Luka Modric has purchased a minority stake in Championship club Swansea City.

The investment will see the Croatian midfielder join the ownership group at the club based in South Wales.

“This is an exciting opportunity,” Modric said. “Swansea has a strong identity, an incredible fanbase, and the ambition to compete at the highest level.

“Playing at the highest level, I believe I can provide my experience to the club.

“My goal is to support the club’s growth in a positive way and to help to build an exciting future.”

Former Premier League club Swansea, whose manager Alan Sheehan has been in post for a month, are in the Championship, and will be joined in England’s second tier next season by Birmingham City – whose ownership consortium that includes NFL legend Tom Brady saw them promoted from League One last week.

Luka in for the Swans

Andy Coleman, Brett Cravatt and Jason Cohen previously held over 75 per cent of the clubs shares, with British businessman Nigel Morris and the Swansea City Supporters Society Ltd also part of the ownership group. Modric will join as a minority investor.
