Real Salt Lake’s drawn-out ownership saga may be coming to a distinct close, with Sportico reporting earlier today that a deal to purchase the club has been agreed by Major LEague Soccer and a group led by David Blitzer.
According to the reporting, Arctos Sports Partners is involved with the purchase as well.
Details are still sparse, with the report indicating that there is not yet a statement as to the purchase price, but that the deal does involve Real Monarchs, Rio Tinto Stadium, and the academy training complex.
Sportico’s reporting has generally been accurate, so I don’t think we have much reason to doubt this one.
