Serie A is increasingly becoming a hub for American owners. In the 2025-26 season, eight Italian top-flight sides have U.S.-based owners or majority shareholders. This includes major clubs like Inter Milan, AS Roma, AC Milan, and Fiorentina, in addition to newly-promoted sides like Pisa and Parma.
At the same time, Bologna have had Canadian businessman Joey Saputo as majority shareholder since 2014. The Rossoblu, after periods of struggle, now find themselves as regulars in European competitions.
