Lionesses Owner Kang Says Investment in Women's Football Is Not Charity
Michele Kang, owner of London City Lionesses, says building infrastructure for women's sport is about fairness, not philanthropy
Michele Kang, the owner of London City Lionesses, has said her investment in women's football is aimed at creating a "level playing field" for the sport, rather than acting as a charitable gesture, according to BBC Sport.
In comments shared by the broadcaster, Kang explained why she believes greater infrastructure is needed to support the growth of women's sports.
"I'm not doing this as a charity," Kang said, according to BBC Sport, framing her involvement as an effort to address structural inequalities in the sport rather than as philanthropy.
BBC Sport's report did not provide further detail on specific investment figures or plans for London City Lionesses.
