From Louisville to Liga MX: Marc Spiegel Lands His Club with Querétaro FC Purchase
QUERÉTARO, QUERÉTARO, JUL 11 – Innovatio Capital's acquisition marks the first majority U.S. ownership in Liga MX amid rising investor interest driven by media rights centralization and private equity involvement.
- Innovatio Capital, led by Marc Spiegel, finalized the $120 million purchase of Querétaro FC from Jorge Alberto Hank, becoming the first majority-U.S. ownership in Liga MX on a recent Friday.
- Spiegel decided to invest in Liga MX after examining over 200 global opportunities and choosing Querétaro due to its vibrant community and football potential.

- Spiegel stated that he is extremely pleased and believes his company has the potential to transform the future of the league while providing a model for future sports investment opportunities.
- This acquisition signifies growing American interest in Liga MX, coinciding with talks of over $1 billion investments by Apollo Global and potential structural changes in the league.
