Bob Iger and Willow Bay on verge of buying majority stake in Angel City for $250 million

Disney CEO Bob Iger and his wife Willow Bay are close to completing a deal that would see them invest $250 million in Angel City FC.

Walt Disney Co. chief executive Bob Iger and his wife Willow Bay, dean of the USC Annenberg School of Journalism, are close to completing a deal that would see them invest $250 million in Angel City FC, nearly doubling the value of the most valuable women’s sports franchise in the world.

That’s $120 million more than the valuation Sportico gave the club last October and nearly 5 1/2 times the average 2023 valuation of the other 11 NWSL clubs. Angel City FC was launched four years ago by actress Natalie Portman, venture capitalist Kara Nortman and entrepreneur Julie Uhrman, who quickly recruited more than 100 other investors from Hollywood and the sports world.
