Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr becomes shareholder of Spanish side RCD Mallorca

Steve Kerr, head coach of the NBA’s Golden State Warriors, has become a shareholder of LaLiga club RCD Mallorca.

“I’m a friend of Andy Kohlberg and we were talking this summer. He told me about the change in ownership, and offered me the chance to be part of the new investment group,” Kerr said.

He added: “I’m really looking forward to it, I was in Mallorca last summer to watch a match, supporting the team and becoming a fan. It’s a very exciting opportunity.”

Kohlberg welcome Kerr

Kohlberg said of Kerr: “It’s a huge step forward. When he was here a year ago and spoke to the players, he made a big impact and I loved hearing the message about the importance of being a team and the involvement of each member, on the pitch and on the bench, in order to always be ready. The players loved it and Steve enjoyed it, too.”
