Does Hugh Jackman play soccer? Which soccer team does he support?
Despite being an Australian actor with a career that spans continents and genres, Jackman has a strong connection to English Football, specifically as a devoted supporter of Norwich City Football Club. “The Canaries,” might come as a surprise to many.
Norwich City, based in Norfolk, England, isn’t one of the Premier League’s most famous or internationally recognized clubs. However, it holds a special place in Jackman’s heart. His affection for the club is rooted in personal connections.
Why is Hugh Jackman a supporter of Norwich City?
His love for the team seems to come from his roots. In a BBC interview, the actor shared that when he was a child in Australia, he wanted a team to support. He asked his English parents where they were from; his dad mentioned London and listed several teams to follow. Overwhelmed by the choices, the actor then asked his mom, who said Norwich City. He chose that team on the spot, marking the beginning of his affection for them.
Hugh Jackman and other Celebrity supporters may have a big iNFLuence on Football teams, especially those who aren’t in the top divisions of the league. One obvious example of this is his buddy and Deadpool co-star Ryan Reynolds, who became involved in English Football after buying a stake in Wrexham AFC.
