One Direction star Louis Tomlinson completes Doncaster takeover

One Direction star Louis Tomlinson has completed his takeover of Doncaster Rovers.

Former chairman John Ryan joins Tomlinson in the buyout.

Ryan's spokesman told the Press Association: "It's done, the takeover is complete."

Tomlinson, 22, played for their reserve side against Scunthorpe earlier this year and had been close to a takeover before, but a move was twice delayed because of negotiations over image rights.
