Tom Brady’s potential part-ownership of the Las Vegas Raiders has been complicated by the price he has been quoted for a 10 per cent stake, as well as his upcoming involvement as a FOX Sports analyst.

Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay is quoted by the Boston Globe on Thursday talking about the price Brady had been quoted. He appeared to refer to rough figures but  Forbes have previously priced the Raiders at $6billion.

‘We’re trying to work it through,’ Irsay said. ‘The number just has to be a reasonable number for purchase price from Tom, is the only thing. If reasonable value says that 10 percent should be $525 million, you can’t pay $175 million.’

The Globe also referred to a league source as saying Brady’s 2024 Fox deal is complicating the deal because ‘not everyone in the league is comfortable with a minority team over also calling games’.

Brady has signed a 10-year, $375million deal with FOX as an analyst which will begin next season.

Brady’s business portfolio has grown significantly over the years. Along with the TB12 and Brady Brand, Brady also holds stakes in multiple sports franchises. 

Brady is a part owner for the Vegas Night Owls in the MLP, Birmingham City FC in the UK’s EFL Championship, and the newly-crowned WNBA Champions Las Vegas Aces. 

Brady’s business ventures have inspired the likes of Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce to try their luck with ownership. 

The Chiefs teammates recently invested in the Alpine Formula One team alongside golfer Rory McIlroy. Mahomes also expressed his interest in owning an NFL after retirement. 

As for Brady, his wishes are stalled but not stuck in an impasse. While Davis has the freedom to sell a slice of the franchise to Brady with a lowered price tag, the deal can not be finalized without the rest of the League’s approval. 

The next league meeting is scheduled to run Dec 12-13, according to the Globe.
