Overview

Andy Dalton, the quarterback for the Carolina Panthers, made a significant investment in the soccer club Leeds United two years back. His decision to invest during the club’s relegation period has now paid off as Leeds secured a spot back in the Premier League after a spectacular 6-0 win against Stoke and a 2-1 victory over Sheffield United.
