Diamond who said he has been in talks with Eto’o for a long time now, pointed out that he is interested in establishing a lucrative football club since the East African nation has potential football players.
His words, “In the past, I thought that venturing in sports business was not profitable but now I see that it is beneficial.. In the near future? I will have my own team which already is trading in the Mainland Premier League because I do not want to start from scratch.”
The musician did not give a time frame to the project but what is clear is that he will be buying an existing club or established player.
