According to reports Liverpool owners the Fenway Sports Group (FSG) are interested in buying NBA team Boston Celtics.
This could mean that Lebron James, who is one of the investors at FSG could end being an owner at Boston Celtics the hated rivals of Lakers.
Fenway Sports Group Considering to Buy The Boston Celtics
According to the New York Post:
“Boston Red Sox Owner Fenway Sports Group and RedBird Capital that partner closely with LeBron James are seriously considering bidding for the Celtics, sources close to the situation said.”
Apart from Liverpool, FSG owns the Red Sox and the Pittsburgh Penguins. FSG also owns the NESN sports cable network.
The sale of Celtics is a two step process where 49% of the team isn’t sold until 2028. By that time Lebron James could have retired and he can easily be the owner of Celtic.
Fenway Sports Group also tried to purchase French club Bordeaux, but the deal did not go through. As a result Bordeaux declared bankruptcy and was relegated to French fourth-tier.
Even though the team makes no money the Boston Celtics owners are seeking $6 billion price to sell the team. Fenway Sports Group and Lebron were working on bringing an NBA franchise to Las Vegas. But now if the Celtics deal goes through they would likely move on Las Vegas idea.
Celtics just hired JPMorgan and BDT & MSD partners to begin the sales process. Celtics fans are furious with news that a Laker might be their future owner.
