Snoop Dogg reveals Wrexham story has made him want to invest in Celtic

The Hollywood duo took over Welsh side Wrexham for just short of £2million in November 2020, when they were in the fifth tier of English football and had been for nearly 15 years.

But they earned promotion to League Two two seasons later in winning the National League, and they secured a consecutive promotion the year after to take their spots in League One this term.

They are now third in the third tier and are targeting yet another promotion, and it seems the club's owners' work is rubbing off on millionaire rapper Snoop Dogg.

Speaking to the Daily Record, the 53-year-old, real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, has outlined his desire to become involved with sport, and in particular Celtic.

Rapper Snoog Dogg has revealed that Wrexham's story has made him want to invest in Celtic

'I love what Ryan has done with Wrexham,' he said. 'It's just a great story.

'Investing in a sports team has been something I have been looking at for a long time. If the chance came to invest in Celtic, I would be crazy not to take a look at it.

'I have watched so much soccer in Europe but I have never seen fans like the Celtic fans. There is something so special about them.

'There is a reason why their fans are talked about across Europe. The best players and coaches in the world tell you there is nowhere like Celtic Park and I want to be a part of that.

'Their mascot is a hound. You couldn't make that up. Snoop Dogg becomes Hoopy the Hound – that's gotta be a match made in heaven. The headlines write themselves.'

Snoop has been pictured in a Celtic shirt in the past, also saying the club are 'his boys' in a previous interview.
