Aston Villa co-owner and US billionaire Wes Edens is embroiled in a trade deal that has brought together some of the richest people in the world.

A trio of private investment groups led by SoftBank-owned Fortress have reached a £ 6.3 billion deal to acquire Wm Morrison, Britain’s fourth-largest supermarket chain, according to the Daily mail.

Edens became a billionaire alongside his Fortress co-founders following the company’s IPO in 2007, and is its co-CEO.

The co-owner of Villa has been a member of the Fortress Board of Directors since November 2006, with responsibility for the company’s private equity activities, which invest primarily in transport and infrastructure, real estate, healthcare, financial services and the media.

While he and Nassef Sawiris continue to fund Villa’s resurgence in the Premier League, Edens also has an impressive portfolio across other companies and his taste for success stems from his business acumen away from the sports world.
