Luke Modric talk 19:37 - Apr 15 with 5709 views | 1983 | It's seems to be that most football fans are talking about it the least amount are Swansea City fans? Are we not bothered? Is it just more spin when it was needed? Is it something and nothing? |  |

Luke Modric talk on 20:47 - Apr 15 with 2288 views | Whiterockin | Is it a PR stunt or will he add value to the club. Has he invested his own money or being gifted a shareholding in return for services. Just to early to tell for me, I will say no notification yet at Companies House of new investment. |  | |  |

Luke Modric talk on 21:41 - Apr 15 with 2151 views | STID2017 | There is so much more to this deal than it appears. You only have to read the articles on here to realise the drive and ambition that has brought this to fruition. The owners (including Modric) clearly intend driving the club onwards and upwards. Having Modric on board will not give us worldwide publicity, extent our fanbase and increase our commercial activity. It will also make the club more attractive to any prospective ( and hopefully current ) players I do not see any negative points in this at all If this was another club they would be dancing with glee |  |

I'm not moaning but as I've said let's see the detail. Is it just a PR exercise or is there some genuine value. After meeting Gorringe I really am not impressed. |  | |  |

What do actually need to see? The guy has a minor share in our club, his standing in the world football is enough for me, I don't need to know the ins and out of what his stake in our club is, him being involved in our club is enough. |  | |  |

If he has invested in the club it has to be disclosed at Companies House, if he has invested in Swansea Football LLC it doesn't, totally different investments. |  | |  |

Oprah Winfrey has never had a thing to do with the Swans. The actress Mindy Kaling was one of the shareholders of the previous group and was on the Lorraine show with Oprah promoting a film when Mindy's involvement was discussed. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/oprah-winfrey-mindy-k |  | |  |

I don't see why you want to know about how much he has put in? It doesn't really matter, all that does matter is we have one of the best midfielders the world has ever seen as one of our owners, him being part of the club has put us in the mainstream news. This is the beginning of something good for our club, I just don't see why some people are negative towards it. |  | |  |

There’s the anomaly but he had nothing to do with Modrić |  |

I want to know if he has invested any of his own money and I feel that is a genuine question. [Post edited 15 Apr 22:12]

He has invested money in his name and it isn’t just a few million. |  |

Disappointing thread this. I get that there is a lack of trust between some fans and the new ownership. But the negativity is draining. Cannot imagine going onto other clubs forums and reading so many miserable responses. |  |

I don't want to fall out mate. But with all the cost cutting at the club and people losing their livelihoods any investment is welcome. What we don't want is senior management massaging their egos. If Modric has invested his own money and his profile will generate income it's brilliant. But if this is not the case and they now have a shareholder who currently invested or provided nothing questions have to be asked. |  | |  |

Why ? What difference does it make how much he has put in ? Whether it is his money or not ? Surely having him associated with the club is enough ? The fact he has put any money in is a bonus Unusual to see you on the negative side of this WR ? |  |
