Snoop Dogg has had his motives questioned after the rapper revealed his wish to invest in Celtic.

In an interview with the Sunday Mail, the 53-year-old hailed the “special” Celtic fans and says he has been inspired by Wrexham owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney to invest in a British football club. 

Speaking on talkSPORT Breakfast, Jeff Stelling and former Liverpool and Aston Villa star Dean Saunders discussed Snoop’s potential motivations for his interest in the Hoops.

Stelling said: “He says he would be mad not to consider putting cash into his favourite club, and he’d even be happy to take on the mascot duties, I love that, his favourite club.”

"Has he got a few quid?” asked Saunders. “I reckon he is probably caked in money. He would need it."

Asked if he believed the rapper was a Celtic fan, Saunders responded: “No. And you know what, there are only a couple of reasons you buy a football club.

"One is because you like Football Manager [video game] and you have that much money that you think 'why don't I buy a real football club, and I can pick the team and the tactics' - then you have a real manager and realise you have to sack him.

"Or, ego to say you own a football club. Or, to try and make money. Or, to try and lose money in some cases. So, what is his motive?"
