Metropoloulos Looking To Buy The Raiders?

Jay Glazer of Fox Sports is reporting that the Oakland Raiders are interested in selling part of the team to raise money. The Raiders are willing to sell 10% of their franchise, which is not enough according to every single Raider fan in the world.

This comes 11 months after reports from ESPN that said the Raiders were working on selling the team to a billionaire, who planned on moving the team back to Los Angeles. At that time the Raiders were selling their franchise to the lead banker of Metropoloulos.

Read this.

"Metropoloulos' lead broker is trying to negotiate a purchase option on the Raiders within three to five years upon closing the deal, sources told Mortensen.

Metropoulos had been identified previously by the Philadelphia Daily News last offseason as an aggressive buyer with a desire to relocate a franchise to Los Angeles. He has publicly denied his reported attempts, but sources confirm their veracity. "

It appears at least to me that Metropoloulos's banker is trying to buy the Raiders again. The similarities are too much alike.

According to my very basic math and educated guesses, Davis currently owns about 80% of the Raiders.
