Michele Kang is spending millions to scoop up women's soccer teams around the world. What's her plan?

Michele Kang is a self-made billionaire who owns three professional women's soccer teams.

Kang is trying to transform the women's game by bringing more young players in and raising standards.

Kang : "We need to do this on a massive scale, because we're talking about half of this population" Kang is used to being questioned -- it is an occupational hazard of being a disruptor.

Washington Spirit finished second in the NWSL and runners-up in the playoffs in 2024 .

London City won promotion to England 's top flight in Kang 's first full season as owner.

The multi-club model is in vogue, and more women's soccer club owners are expanding their portfolios.

Kang says she wants to prove that women's sports is good business.

Kang 's plan is to boost investment in a space that has historically lacked it, much like any other business opportunity.

The money she has donated to U.S. Soccer is all earmarked for those initiatives.

With that foundation, the product of women's soccer can flourish at a scale beyond just a few clubs.
