As with many high-profile figures, people worldwide are curious about various aspects of their lives, including football fans.
So, which club does the 79-year-old support?
During a January 2018 interview with journalist and Arsenal fan Piers Morgan on ITV, the topic of football (or soccer, as Trump might call it) came up.
“The moment I invite President Trump to be Arsenal’s new manager – because he’d build a strong defensive wall, have an attacking philosophy & want to win big trophies at all costs,” Morgan tweeted in January 2018.
In the interview, Trump mentioned that his son Barron “loves” the sport. Morgan then asked if Trump was an Arsenal fan while presenting an Arsenal shirt with ‘Trump 45’ printed on the back.
“That’s beautiful, I have a son who does love this sport,” said Trump.
“And he loves Arsenal, right?” quipped Morgan.
“Are you an Arsenal fan, too?” added the British journalist.
“Not particularly, no,” replied Trump.
A disappointed Morgan then joked Trump had “killed the dream”. But, no one expected the New Yorker to hint at his support for one of Arsenal’s Premier League rivals.
“I have a friend who owns Manchester United,” revealed the US president.
The “friend” Trump mentioned was Edward Glazer, son of Malcolm Glazer, who acquired a majority stake in Manchester United for $5.4 billion in 2005.
In 2023, Edward and his five siblings sold 25 percent of their 68 percent stake to British chemical billionaire Jim Ratcliffe.
The Glazers continue to own the NFL team Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which their father purchased for $192 million in 1995, according to Forbes. Edward co-chairs the club’s board with his brothers Joel and Bryan.
