Diddy Confirms Interest In Buying Crystal Palace Football Club

Rapper Diddy has confirmed that he expressed interest in buying Crystal Palace football club earlier this year.

The US hip-hop artist made enquiries in March when the Championship side was on the brink of going into administration.

However, Diddy has said he decided against a take over because “it just wasn't the right business move for me at the time”.

But the rapper hasn't ruled out investing in another club in the future as he continues to build his business empire.

"I'm always looking into different business ventures and it's definitely one of my dreams one day to be a part of a sports franchise, especially a football team," he told the BBC.

"If the right situation comes my way and it's appealing and we can make the right splash and most importantly build the right team and win...

"I'm into winning and if it's the right situation then I'm open to it."

Diddy is due to release his new album 'Last Train To Palace' in September.
