The New York Yankees have joined forces with a financial firm and a group of investors led by basketball great LeBron James to purchase legendary Italian soccer club AC Milan.
Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner acquired a little less than a 10% stake in the Series A soccer power and may showcase repeats of their games on its YES cable network, according to sources.
“Hal [Steinbrenner] has a lot of interest in soccer,” a source said.
