The Wrexham-Bournemouth Connection! Creed Superstar Michael B. Jordan Reacts to Ryan Reynolds’ Massive $1.3 Billion Worth Deal

Two soccer clubs with over a century-old legacy, Wrexham and Bournemouth, don’t necessarily hold any links with each other. But it seems these clubs have a connection because of their famous owners. Recently, Hollywood actor Michael B. Jordan reacted to Ryan Reynolds’ new venture.

Reynolds became the owner of Wrexham AFC back in 2020. It didn’t take much longer for Creed superstar to join the Deadpool star’s territory, as he became a minor investor in Bournemouth AFC in 2022. Now, the two teams are making waves with their celebrity owners.

Michael B. Jordan reacts to Ryan Reynolds’ new deal

Ryan Reynolds recently took to Instagram to share the news that legacy network provider, T-Mobile, is purchasing Mint Mobile, a company he owns minority stocks in. The deal is estimated to be worth around $1.3 billion. Reynolds shared a video with the caption, “Some pretty huge news. Also humbling, overwhelming, wonderful, terrifying..”

This got an unexpected response from the Black Panther actor, who commented on the post to show his support for the new project. Michael B. Jordan responded with two clapping emojis and the comment, “well done”. It’s a pretty big deal when two Hollywood actors who are also major investors in soccer teams share a heartwarming moment like this.

The Hollywood connection between the two teams is certainly a unique one and, given the ambitious nature of both Reynolds and Jordan, it’s doubtful that this will be the last we hear of their business ventures. On top of it, Ryan Reynolds also played a role in Jordan’s investment.

Reynolds’ role in Michael B. Jordan’s investment

In December 2022, Michael B. Jordan became a minority investor of Bournemouth, in a move that sent shockwaves through the world of professional soccer. It’s worth noting that Ryan Reynolds’ investment in Wrexham FC played a role in inspiring Jordan to make the move.

Jordan revealed the role Reynolds’ investment played in his own decision during an appearance on Late Night with James Corden. “I was like, ‘if he can do it, I can do it!'” Jordan said of Reynolds. “And I just went for it”. It remains to be seen if Jordan will have the same level of success with Bournemouth as Reynolds has had with Wrexham, but one thing is for sure: he’s off to a good start.
