Is the Oakland Raiders stadium deal in Las Vegas falling apart like a house of cards?
A day after casino mogul Sheldon Adelson pulled out of the project, a league source said financial bank Goldman Sachs may also no longer be interested in the deal.
Adelson had committed $650 million to get the $1.9 billion project completed, but the billionaire CEO of Las Vegas Sands Corp., was upset that he wasn’t involved in the team’s pitched lease document to the Clark County Stadium Authority.
The Raiders told NFL owners two weeks ago that they could finance that amount through Goldman Sachs if Adelson wasn’t part of the deal, but Adelson has a longstanding business relationship with Goldman Sachs.
