Ed Sheeran was about to join Taylor Swift on stage at a concert over the summer when he got a call from his favorite soccer team.
It needed his help to sign a player.
Sheeran, the British pop star, is a minor shareholder at Ipswich Town, which returned to the English Premier League this season for the first time since 2002.
Turns out he is more than just an investor and lifelong fan. He’s now part of Ipswich’s recruitment team.
