Arsenal's Spanish defender Hector Bellerin has become the second-largest shareholder in Forest Green Rovers, the world's most environmentally sustainable soccer club, according to FIFA.
Bellerin, who this year pledged to ensure 3,000 trees were planted in the Amazon rainforest for every Arsenal win, said he was excited to join Rovers' green revolution."It's important that I invest in things I am passionate about - and I'm excited to help push football into having a sustainable future," the 25-year-old told the club's website.
Forest Green Rovers play at the New Lawn Stadium in Gloucestershire and will begin their League two fixtures at Bolton Wanderers this coming weekend. Plans have also been approved for the world's first all-wood stadium designed by Zaha Hadid Architects.
