A Nepali businessman has made history by stepping into European football. CP Khetan has invested in the Swiss football club FC Schaffhausen, marking the first time a Nepali has entered the ownership side of European football.
FC Schaffhausen had been facing financial problems for some time. The club struggled with debts and instability. Khetan’s investment has helped clear those debts and bring new energy to the team. Khetan’s investment of at least 10 million Swiss Francs has cleared the club’s debts and brought new energy and stability.
Under the new ownership, the club is expected to focus on rebuilding its strength and improving its performance in the Swiss football league.
Khetan is already known for his international business ventures, including buying the famous Duxton Reserve Hotel in Singapore. His involvement in European football is being seen as a proud moment for Nepal, showing how Nepali entrepreneurs are making their mark beyond national borders.
This historic step could also inspire other Nepali investors to explore opportunities in international sports and business, expanding Nepal’s presence on the global stage.
