My sister made me support Arsenal when I was a kid, says Chelsea bidder Lewis Hamilton
Lewis Hamilton spoke on Friday of his excitement in joining a bid to buy Premier League side Chelsea, saying he was a lifelong football fan who had once wanted to be a professional player and whose sister forced him to support Arsenal as a kid. The seven-times Formula One world champion told reporters at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix that he had wanted to try out for fourth tier side Stevenage Borough before motor racing took over his life. The Briton and tennis great Serena Williams have joined former Liverpool chairman Martin Broughton's consortium, which also includes World Athletics President Sebastian Coe and other wealthy investors, in bidding for the West Londoners. Hamilton said it was "one of the greatest opportunities" and he wanted to help Chelsea and the local community move on from years of ownership by now-sanctioned Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich. "When I was young, around the corner from where I lived I used to play football with all the kids and I really wanted to fit in," said the Mercedes driver. "I remember switching between the teams and getting it wrong, and my sister Sam punching me several times in the arm, basically beating me and saying you have to support Arsenal."
