According to official information, the operation does not modify the majority control of the institution, since the stadium, the majority of the shares and the surrounding land will continue to be owned by Grupo Ollamani. Said business group will continue to be headed by Emilio Azcárraga Jean, who will remain executive president of the Board of Directors of Club América.
In the statement, the azulcrema board highlighted that this strategic alliance seeks to strengthen the club both in the sporting and business fields, with a vision of long-term growth. Likewise, it was stressed that the arrival of General Atlantic will not imply changes in the identity or values that have historically characterized the institution.
“Club América will maintain its essence and its vocation for greatness,” says the message, which also highlights the commitment to continue being a benchmark for Mexican and regional soccer, both for its sporting achievements and for its social and commercial impact.
This agreement marks the beginning of a new stage for the azulcrema team, which is committed to incorporating capital and international experience to consolidate its position as one of the most important and successful clubs on the continent.
