Boston Celtics co-owner Stephen Pagliuca on his Atalanta FC ownership

By now it is no secret that Boston Celtics co-Governor Stephen Pagliuca is not just a fan of European football (better known stateside as “soccer”), but also an active participant in Italian Series A football as part owner of Atalanta, the professional football club which is based in Bergamo, Lombardy, Italy.

Pagliuca has also been tied to other football clubs in Europe, most famously after getting involved in the bidding process for Premier League club Chelsea, but also more recently being rumored as having an interest in buying either Liverpool football club or Manchester United.

Naturally, the Celtics co-owner’s active and growing presence in European football has gotten Pagliuca on the European sports media’s radar, with a recent interview by CBS Sports’ Matteo Bonetti.

Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear more about Pags’ love for footy abroad.
