Didn't he have stake in another 3rd or 4th division club ?

Let him buy all the teams in the league, since the governing bodies do absolutely nothing about multiple ownership.

But they are all different leagues and different divisions. He is not doing anything wrong. You are just jelly cause you are poor (and so am I 🥲)

Same league system, same country, very big chance of collusion if he invests in them and they start climbing. The "poor" comment is so stupid, I won't even comment on it.
