Mubadala Capital Strikes $10B Sports Investment Deal with TWG

UAE, 2 May, 2025 : Mubadala Capital has entered a $10 billion investment deal with US-based TWG Global, gaining exposure to major sports franchises like the LA Dodgers, LA Lakers, and Chelsea FC.

As part of the deal, TWG will acquire a $2.5 billion minority stake in Mubadala Capital, marking a rare reversal where a private firm invests in a sovereign wealth fund’s asset manager.

Global SWF called the move a potential shift in global sports investing, with Mubadala positioning itself alongside Saudi Arabia’s PIF. Mubadala Capital manages over $30 billion across private equity, venture capital, and other asset classes, and the deal underscores rising interest in alternative investments.
