Luke Littler admitted to Daily Star Sport he would love to purchase Warrington Town and their chairman, Toby Macormac, once said the club is “always open” to him
Warrington Town’s chairman, Toby Macormac, has said the club is “always open” to Luke Littler.
Littler, 18, told Daily Star Sport that purchasing Warrington Town could be an “idea” for the future. He said: “It would be an investment for myself in the coming years.
“I’ve got a local team. Warrington Town, who are in National League North… Maybe that could be an idea for the future.”
The Nuke has been spotted at Warrington this season, most recently for a National League North clash with Hereford back in October. And after the game, Macormac said, via the Warrington Guardian: “The door is always open.
“What Luke has done to put the town on the map in a way it’s never been before has been unbelievable and he’s an inspiration for so many.
“We know he takes keen interest in our fortunes and we were delighted to see him attend a recent home game against Hereford – and even more delighted that he saw us win!
“He’s only early into his career and he’s got a lot to focus on with that, but our door is always open to Luke in whatever capacity in which he wishes to get on board with our journey as we look to realise the potential we feel our club has.”
There has been a rise in celebrity owners over the past couple of years – most notably with Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney at Wrexham.
