fans eye foreign investment

According to a recent survey, Bhoys fans are looking to follow their team into Europe off the pitch as well as on it…by investing in an overseas home.

Carried out by Celtic’s Official Overseas Property Partner, THE VILLAGE, the survey shows that almost THREE QUARTERS (73%) of football supporters either already own, or would like to own, property abroad.

Almost half (42%) of fans of some of Scotland and England’s leading clubs, including Celtic, also nominated Spain as the top destination to own a home abroad, ahead of the likes of France (11%) and USA (10%).

With a fantastic year-round climate and just a short flight away, it is no surprise that the ever-popular Spain came out on top and, according to Bhoys legend, Tom Boyd, The Village – ideally situated on Spain’s Costa del Sol - is the perfect opportunity for fans looking to buy a home overseas.

“The Village is a remarkable development and offers everything you could want from a holiday home or investment – world-class apartments, facilities and location - all at tremendous value and in a region that benefits from around 320 days of sunshine every year. This is why Celtic is not only happy to recommend The Village to its supporters, but also to take the team itself out there for future training camps.”
