Interesting article on financiers for Gold Coast's proposed bid.

I note a number of the have expansion bidders, are proposing funding opportunities from overseas (Hong Kong, China, USA etc).
Some of the existing Australian A League clubs have/did have foreign owners.
Why is it that NZ football struggles for overseas investment (Mr Handa excepted). Too small a market?
Surely it makes more sense for the Phoenix Rising backers to sponsor Wellington Phoenix rather than GC United!
I think small countries struggle in that aspect in general, if the sponsorship is not tied to some other tangible deals.
