Vinícius Júnior’s purchase of a majority stake in FC Alverca highlights the growing trend of active footballers investing in clubs. His €10 million investment grants him significant control over the Portuguese second-division team, following a similar move by Kylian Mbappé with SM Caen.
As FC Alverca pushes for promotion, Vinícius’s involvement could provide valuable resources and strategic guidance, reflecting a broader shift where top players plan for life after football through club ownership. This trend showcases how modern athletes are using their experience and financial influence to shape the future of the sport beyond their playing careers.
