sne Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Quote Milwaukee Bucks co-owner Wes Edens is one of a handful of people trying to lure a Major League Soccer team to Las Vegas as the city emerges as the most likely location for the league’s 30th franchise. Edens and Vegas Golden Knights owner Bill Foley are part of separate groups hoping to bring an expansion franchise to Allegiant Stadium, the $2 billion home of the Las Vegas Raiders, according to multiple people familiar with the plans. Another group, backed by the Renaissance Companies, is looking to bring a team to Cashman Field, home of the city’s USL franchise. A representative for MLS declined to comment on the expansion. A spokesman for Edens also declined to comment, and a representative for Foley didn’t immediately respond to a request. Co-founder of Fortress Investment Group, Edens’ sports holding include the Bucks, English soccer club Aston Villa, and esports organization FlyQuest. He has direct business ties to Las Vegas, as well. Fortress is backing Brightline West, a high-speed rail project hoping to connect Las Vegas to Los Angeles https://sports.yahoo.com/wes-edens-backs-mls-expansion-150603202.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably earned more in dividends from his multiple investments today than he's pumped into Villa in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
