The Nice owner and Man Utd investor owns the brilliant £130million Hampshire II.

Fit for a man nicknamed Dr No (like the Bond villain), it can cater for up to 14 guests.

Within the huge water vessel, named Hampshire II, is a beach club at the rear featuring terraces and views of the ocean plus a helipad.

The yacht also includes posh bathrooms and delightful bedrooms, as well as a wonderful dining room and huge living area.





Mohammed bin Salman

Newcastle owner bin Salman's superyacht, worth £95million, boasts everything from a 13-seat cinema to a helipad that doubles up as a golf driving range.

There is even the world's most expensive painting on board, an original by Leonardo da Vinci called Salvator Mundi, which the Saudi Crown Prince reportedly bought for £330million in 2017.

Bin Salman's guests (of which 12 could be invited) will always entertained, as the yacht features a party deck complete with two bars, a dance floor, grand piano and barbecue – not to mention a cellar which reportedly holds 1,000 bottles of tequila.

Imagine if Newcastle win the league… some of the star players might just get to use it.




John Henry

Liverpool owner John Henry bought his superyacht in 2016 from Russian entrepreneur Georgy Bedzhamov, who had to sell it due to fraud charges in his homeland.

Previously known as Ester III, the American renamed it Elysian.

It boasts a stunning infinity pool on the top deck that provides a stunning visual experience.

The yacht also has a helipad, a fully equipped gym, and a luxurious spa complete with a massage room, sauna, and steam room.

It can host up to 12 guests in six bedrooms, while on-board facilities include a dedicated spa, a gym room, and a cinema.

Its interior is fitted out with a grand spiral staircase, floor-to-ceiling TV screens, and surfaces of marble and gold.

On its deck is a Jacuzzi, swimming pool, and a fire pit for cooking in the sun.



David Beckham

Inter Miami co-owner Becks is new to the yacht game, having bought his recently for around £5million.

The vessel is named Seven — matching his shirt number for the Red Devils and as his country’s skipper, plus the middle name of ten-year-old daughter Harper.

Last year, the Beckham family took it for a spin in Florida.

The yacht can accommodate ten guests in five state rooms. And the millionaire’s status symbol has a nippy top speed of 30 knots.


Stan Kroenke

Arsenal owner Kroenke loves the finer things in life.

Apart from owning a multitude of successful sports teams, he has an amazing ranch in Texas that's bigger than the whole of Los Angeles where his NFL team the Rams play.

A spa pool and beach club are also featured on board.


Joe Lewis

Tottenham's Joe Lewis once had his boat drifting through the Thames in 2018.

Usually seen in the Bahamas, the Aviva has an incredible tennis court built into it – the first of its kind.

It can also be used to entertain, just as it was when he invited the Spurs team on board in 2013 during their tour of the Caribbean country.
