Cheryl Cole says she would buy troubled Newcastle United, if she could afford it.
The club has been on the market since May when Mike Ashley put it up for sale with a €114m price tag after the team's relegation to the Championship.
No one has yet bought the club and the Geordie 'X Factor' judge Cole said she would like to buy the club if she had enough money.
The singer is said to have amassed a €11.4m fortune as a member of Girls Aloud, as a 'X Factor' judge, and from endorsements and property.
Her husband, Chelsea and England footballer Ashley Cole, earns €4m a year.
During an interview on the Real Radio breakfast show, she was asked: "We've got a suggestion from one of the listeners - you must have got a bit of cash these days, you don't fancy buying Newcastle United do you, and putting Ashley (Cole) at left-back?"
Cole replied: "You know what - if I had that kind of cash I actually would. I would at this stage."
She added: "I always think of Newcastle as home, that's my home. That's where my family are, and where my old friends are.
"I don't go back as often as I would like, but I always go up there for Christmas or maybe a niece or nephew's birthday if I can make it.
"I go back as often as I can - there is nowhere in the world like Newcastle."
