Abstract

The San Francisco 49ers are considering selling a 10% stake in the team at a valuation of over $9 billion, potentially making it one of the most expensive sports teams globally. The NFL has seen an increase in stake sales following the approval of private equity groups to invest in franchises, with teams like the Philadelphia Eagles and Miami Dolphins also exploring similar transactions. The 49ers, owned by Jed York, have a successful history, winning five Super Bowls, and their business arm, 49ers Enterprises, acquired English football club Leeds United in 2023.
