Tom Hicks, der Besitzer der Dallas Stars, Texas Rangers und Mitbesitzer vom FC Liverpol ist angeblich bereit bis zu 49% von den Texas Rangers (Baseball) zu verkaufen. Er hat aber auch betont dass er die Stars
nicht verkaufen will!
Zitat:
Tom Hicks is willing to give up control of baseball’s Texas Rangers if the right deal comes along, but he intends to keep the NHL’s Dallas Stars.
Hicks said in late March that he was seeking minority investors to purchase up to 49 percent in each club. About a week later, the holding company that owns the clubs, Hicks Sports Group, defaulted on about $525 million in loans. Hicks said he intentionally made the move to help negotiate with banks.
“With the right partners, I would be willing to sell a controlling interest in the Rangers,” Hicks said on Thursday in an e-mail to The Associated Press. “Not so with the Stars.”
Die Hicks Sports Group hat zur Zeit finanzielle Probleme. Im April hat sie die Zinsen für einen $525 Mio Kredit nicht bezahlt.
