The Raiders have told NFL officials they have commitments from Goldman Sachs to finance a proposed $1.9 billion Las Vegas stadium project even without the help of casino magnate Sheldon Adelson.
But the man helping the Las Vegas Stadium Authority develop a plan to bring the Raiders to Nevada said Friday many hurdles remain before relocation can happen.
“It is not one hurdle, it is a series of events, all of which have to take place in order to create a situation where an NFL team could be playing in southern Nevada in 2020,” said Jeremy Aguero of Applied Analysis.
