RCD Espanyol has made official the historic change in its ownership, with the entry of the Velocity Sports Partners group, led by American entrepreneur Alan Pace. The blue and white club has qualified the operation as the beginning of a new era of collaboration, strategic growth, and long-term success. Alan Pace, who is already listed as Espanyol's president on his social media, will combine his presidency with that of Burnley FC, a team in the English Premier League. The operation has taken place after an extensive audit and collaboration process with the previous owner, Chen Yansheng and the Rastar Group. Espanyol emphasizes that the transition has been orderly and that the agreement is based on a shared vision of the future that seeks to build on the club's legacy and its connection with the community. From VSP, they assure that their investment aims to strengthen Espanyol's sports and institutional foundations, aiming for a modernization of the academies and infrastructure, as well as sustained success on and off the field. Alan Pace has highlighted that his goal is to continue the club's legacy, not replace it, and that Espanyol will maintain its independence and identity. The manager has defended a management model based on transparency, responsibility, and respect for the local community, committing to work honestly and openly to strengthen the pride and tradition of the Catalan club. The acquisition process has been meticulous and motivated by a deep admiration for the club's history and fan base. RCD Espanyol has begun a new era with Velocity Sports Partners, with the goal of strengthening its position in the League and continuing to be a competitive and respected club in Spanish football. The Perico fan base has received the news with enthusiasm, hoping that the new ownership will be beneficial for the club and its future. Espanyol continues to work to improve its team and structure, with the goal of achieving the desired objectives in the current season. The collaboration between the club and the new ownership is fundamental to the team's success, and it is expected that the relationship will be fruitful and beneficial for both parties.
