Hollywood actor Michael B Jordan became one of the newest additions to the trend of Hollywood actors joining the soccer world. This trend was popularized by Ryan Reynolds who became the owner of the Welsh soccer club, Wrexham AFC which plays in the fifth division of English soccer.

Michael B Jordan joined the movement in December 2022 when he became a minor investor in the Premier League club, Bournemouth. The Creed star recently made some revelation about his investment in the soccer club and the role Ryan Reynold played in it.

During an appearance on Late Night with James Corden, he opened up about his investment and name-dropped Ryan Reynolds in the process. “There is no real rhyme or reason, it was just a cool thing to do,” Jordan said of his investment. “I wanted to get into sports management and ownership, and the opportunity presented itself”.

He further added, “And then Ryan Reynolds was doing his own thing and I was like, ‘if he can do it, I can do it!And I just went for it“. It’s clear that Reynolds’ investment in Wrexham AFC was a catalyst for Jordan’s own investment in Bournemouth. Reynolds made headlines in February 2021 when he became a part-owner of the historic club. Ever since he’s been pretty vocal about his love for the team and the sport since then.

Bournemouth might have gained the backing of renowned actor, Michael B Jordan, but their current performances leave much to be desired.


This season, Bournemouth has not met its usual standards of performance. It’s evidenced by recent losses to Arsenal and Manchester City. Furthermore, their first match with Michael B Jordan in attendance went awry; the club lost to Crystal Palace in December.

Such streak of defeats has caused Bournemouth to plummet down the League table to the very bottom. And has made difficult the task of avoiding relegation from first-division status.
