    Swansea City - Majority shareholders Steve Kaplan & Jason Levien, they bought a major stake of 68% in 2016, other investments in major league soccer team DC United, & basketball franchise Memphis Grizzlies, Kaplan fronts Oaktree Capital Investment, which provided the bulk of the money, for the pairs Liberty Stadium takeover.
    Funny twist is that, there are 25 other investors, including Hollywood actress Mindy Kaling, among investors are a eye surgeon, property investors, a film maker, orthopedic surgeon, & other investment funds.
    Landon Donavan , a former Everton footballer, works has a advisor to Levien & Kaplan, the consortium is called Swansea Football LLt.
    The actress may have invested due to knowing Catherine Zeta Jones who was born there and still has strong links to home

    If so I think they must have met at the plastic surgeon's office because the pair of them are essentially unrecognisable these days.
