Tems Makes History as Part-Owner of Major League Soccer’s San Diego FC
Nigerian singer, songwriter, and producer Temilade Openiyi, widely known as Tems, has reached another groundbreaking milestone—this time in the world of sports. Through her company, The Leading Vibe, Tems has officially become a part-owner of San Diego Football Club (SDFC), a team in Major League Soccer (MLS).
This historic move makes her the first African female to hold ownership stakes in an MLS club, solidifying her influence beyond the music industry and into global sports.
