Jude Bellingham buys cricket stake

Bellingham's 1.2% holding, valued at approximately 1 million pounds, represents a unique crossover between football and elite cricket.

The investment was welcomed by Warwickshire County Cricket Club, who co-own the franchise and hope Bellingham's global profile will attract a younger audience to the sport.

The move follows a trend of high-profile athletes diversifying their portfolios by investing in professional sports teams.

Bellingham is expected to take an active role in promoting the team ahead of the 2026 season.
