Giannis Antetokounmpo and Filip Forsberg Join Nashville SC Ownership Group

Giannis Antetokounmpo and Filip Forsberg have joined the Nashville SC ownership group.

The duo is joining an ownership group that also features Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry and Academy Award winner Reese Witherspoon.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is joined in ownership by his brothers Thanasis, Kostas, and Alex.

Filip Forsberg is the leading scorer in Nashville Predators’ history (NHL).

“My father was a professional soccer player, and it was the first sport I fell in love with in Greece,” Giannis Antetokounmpo said in a statement released by the team. “I’ve always had the dream of owning a soccer team. When my brothers and I explored Nashville SC, we knew it was a team and a city that we wanted to get involved with.”

This comes at a time when athletes and equity are changing.
