10 Richest Football Club Owners in Europe

7. John Fredriksen – 11.5 billion $

The list continues with Norway’s richest man John Fredriksen a 70 year old that has the biggest oil tank fleet in the world.

So by now you figured it out. He made his money out if the oil tanker and shipping industry.

He made big money during the 1980 Iran and Iraq wars when his companies transported high risk oil, having a huge profit.

By the year 2006 he turned down the Norwegian citizenship and became a Cypriot. For him owning a football team doesn’t mean spending a large amount of money and investing in the purchase of players, that’s why the team has a 10 year break since they won their last championship.

He is know to be in business with the number 8 from our richest football club owners list, Roman Abramovich, who made him a 200 million dollar offer, on a house Fredriksen has in London.

He is married to Salma Hayek->
