    Well, he still owns a piece of LAFC, he owns FK Sarajevo and KV Kortrijk. Having said that, he does own as much of CCFC as it's possible to own. So.....

    The news reports are very confusing (with Wales Online contradicting its own reports regularly) but I think the story around Sarajevo was that Tan sold about 20% of his controlling stake last year (reports from July onwards). Not clear if he still has a controlling stake but I believe he is still the major investor if not the majority owner.

    The reports that he was due to sell his LAFC stake appeared later last year, but whether that was reporting an event or a plan is also a bit murky. If the LA Times are now reporting it as a done deal maybe it took this long to complete the sale?

    Hopefully we can learn something from the setup at LAFC as they went from nothing to having a very progressive approach , and were excellent last season

    And are now valued at $700M which makes them worth more than several big EPL and European clubs.

    THere was a podcast i heard back in the summer that was an interview with their director of football talking about how they'd approached things, it was quite interesting.

    Yeah Bob Bradley was interviewed as well, and they said for an older manager he was actually one of the more open to modern techniques.
