Didi Mateschitz
A touch of the Champions League in the test between RB Salzburg and Barcelona. In the billionaire ranking, Didi Mateschitz is already in the “royal league”.
The Bulls' duel against the Catalans is also a clash of financial contradictions. While Barca are still forced to save and have still not been able to renew their contract with club icon Lionel Messi, the people of Mozartstadt are not plagued by any financial problems, albeit in other dimensions. After all, with Dietrich Mateschitz, there is a potent financier behind the club.
And he plays in the ranking of the richest football bosses in the Champions League, reports the “Daily Mail” – while the bulls have to qualify for it.
Only one football boss has more money in his account than the energy drink billionaire who is also the sponsor of the German Bundesliga club RB Leipzig: Mansour Al Nahyan – the sheikh who is behind Manchester City. His fortune is estimated at 23.43 billion euros.
This is followed by Mateschitz with 22.26 billion euros, leaving well-known football bosses such as Andrea Agnelli (Juventus, 16.40 billion euros), Dietmar Hopp (Hoffenheim, 15.23 billion euros) or Roman Abramovich (Chelsea, 14.06 billion euros) ) clearly behind you. Nasser Al-Khelaifi, Sheikh of Paris St.-Germain, only ranks eighth (9.37 billion euros).
It doesn't seem to be a problem that the financially troubled Catalans are rumored to receive almost half a million euros for their guest appearance in Salzburg.
