Billionaire Alan Howard Attends Hapoel Tel Aviv Basketball Game for First Time
Jewish-English billionaire Alan Howard was present at a Hapoel Tel Aviv basketball game for the first time on Thursday evening. Howard, 61, attended the "Social Super Cup" match against Maccabi Tel Aviv, marking his initial appearance at a game since his investment in the club.
Howard holds a 20% stake in Yanai Sport, the company that owns approximately 81% of Hapoel Tel Aviv's shares. The remaining shares are held by the Hapoel Ossishkin association. He was joined at the game by his business partners Ofer Yanai, Miki Malka, and Gili Ra'anan, who also hold significant stakes in the team.
Howard is the co-founder of the hedge fund Brevan Howard and is estimated to be worth nearly $4 billion, placing him among the world's wealthiest individuals. The game also served as an introduction for Hapoel Tel Aviv's new squad for the 2026/27 season.
