Rapper A$AP Rocky is part of an American consortium in talks to acquire Tranmere Rovers, a League Two club in England. The group, which includes celebrity lawyer Joe Tacopina, is seeking to purchase an 80% stake in the club.

The potential takeover has gained momentum following A$AP Rocky’s recent acquittal in a firearm assault trial. Current owner Mark Palios has welcomed the discussions, highlighting the commercial benefits and increased exposure the investment could bring.

With A$AP Rocky and his partner, Rihanna, involved, the deal is expected to draw significant global attention to Tranmere Rovers, potentially replicating the success of other celebrity-backed football clubs.
