Here is why Lewis Hamilton wants to buy Chelsea

Although the 37-year-old admits he used to support Arsenal, Sir Lewis Hamilton has claimed that his support for Sir Martin Broughton’s effort to acquire Chelsea is based on the possibility given by the takeover.

The two most prominent figures participating in Broughton’s bid to buy Chelsea for 2.5 billion pounds are Hamilton and Serena Williams, a 23-time Grand Slam tennis champion.

“I remember switching between these teams when I was younger and getting home and my sister punching me several times in the arm,” Hamilton told the press.

“My sister, Sam, basically beating me saying, ‘You have to support Arsenal.’ So, I remember at five or six years old that I then became a supporter of Arsenal.

“My Uncle Terry is a big Blues fan. I’ve been to so many games with him to watch Arsenal and Chelsea play, and ultimately I’m a sporting fan.

“It is the biggest sport in the world, and Chelsea is one of the biggest clubs in the world and most successful. When I heard about this opportunity, I was like, ‘Wow, this is this is one of the greatest opportunities to be a part of something so great,” he explained.

Hamilton claimed that he used to play football for Stevenage Borough, his hometown when he was a kid.
