Jeff Bezos is well-known as the founder and owner of the Amazon e-commerce company. He has been in the retail line of business for a long time and has tried to venture into other fields along the way.
Now, the billionaire is said to be eyeing the acquisition of the Washington Commanders NFL team. The deal, if pushes through, will make Bezos spend billions.
Moreover, if Bezos pursues the buyout, the NFL team’s owner Daniel Synder thinks that he can really earn at least $6 billion or more. He bought the American football team in 1999 for $800 million, which was a record amount at that time, but today, he is said to be struggling to keep the Commanders running.
As per Fox Business, Sunder and his team of advisers are confident that the NFL team could sell for $6 billion or possibly higher, especially with the latest involvement of the Amazon founder, who is currently worth $125 billion.
Synder also clarified that he is not summarily rejecting Bezos as a possible bidder for his sports franchise that was previously known as the Washington Redskins. He made the clarifications since the media reported that he disapproved of the billionaire’s bid to acquire the team.
He would accept Bezos's bid and mentioned that the rumored bad blood between him and the Amazon owner was too exaggerated. Sources with direct knowledge of this matter have shared this information.
Bezos hired bankers to look into the bid, but he has not actually placed a bid yet. It was rumored that he was put off when it was reported that Snyder would not hand him the Commanders due to the Washington Post coverage of the sexual misconduct allegations against the team’s management. Bezos owned the said publication.
Meanwhile, Bezos has not joined the bidding for the acquisition of the Commanders yet but will surely be given a chance to do so if he is interested. Insiders told Sources told Front Office Sports that the deadline for the bidding is weeks away and not days as reported.
