Sidley Austin is among a quartet of firms that advised as Ipswich Town FC changed its majority ownership last week, in a deal that values the club at £350m – the highest valuation for any Championship club in history.
The majority share of Gamechanger 20 Ltd, the club’s parent company, was acquired by Portman Holdings LLC – a group comprised of investments from the Three Lions fund and Clara Vista Partners, alongside previous majority shareholder ORG Portfolio Management.
