The Boston Celtics Ownership Set to Sell: Franchise Valuation Reaches Record High of Nearly $5 Billion

Published

By


The Boston Celtics ownership seems to have decided to sell the franchise: the team’s valuation is truly impressive.

In this 2024 the NBA has painted itself in white and green the title victory by a historic franchise like the Boston Celtics. The Massachusetts team completed a sensational season both in the regular season and during the playoffs, culminating in a Finals played to great effect and won in just five games. For the green and white franchise, it was the 18th title in their enviable history, a title that came after sixteen long years of waiting for the fans.

A mind-blowing deal for the franchise that just won the NBA (Tshot)

But now the Celtics will have to get used to breathing new air since a change of ownership is expected in the next few months, decided by the same current shareholdersThe current Boston management made this known by officially communicating it with posts published on social media and with a note that appeared on the official website of the franchise that recently became NBA champion.

Boston Celtics Sale of Ownership in Sight: Franchise Value Nears $5 Billion

As you can read on Football and Finance, the objective of the current shareholders group of the Celtics is to be able to proceed with a sale of the shares in a short time, or at the latest by the end of 2024 or the first months of 2025. There will then be a period of cohabitation between the current shareholders and the new ones before the definitive and complete change of hands which should take place by 2028, the expiry date of the mandate of the current top manager Wyc Grousbeck.

At the moment, the Massachusetts franchise is controlled by several shareholders, but the leader is Wyc Grousbeck’s group. The valuation for the purchase of the Boston Celtics shares, according to the first analyses by experts, is truly mind-boggling: we are talking about almost 5 billion dollars.

In the next few months we will find out if some new wealthy investor will come knocking on the door of the current owners to take the helm of the Boston Celtics who in the meantime will return to the field in October to try to defend the title with the usual protagonists Tatum, Brown, Porzingis, White and Holiday.

Third French victory in the 2024 Grande Boucle. Anthony Turgis won the ninth stage of the Tour de France on Sunday, a 199-kilometre loop around Troyes (Aube).

And a third victory for France. Anthony Turgis (TotalEnergies) won the ninth stage of the Tour de France 2024, that of the white paths, Sunday July 9, in Troyes (Aube).

Tadej Pogacar remains in yellow at the end of a completely crazy stage marked by numerous attacks and several “explanations” between favorites.

It was in a sprint that Turgis beat his breakaway companions to beat the Briton Tom Pidcock and the Canadian Derek Gee and secure the greatest victory of his career.

“It’s incredible, it’s been a long time since I won. I’ve been thinking about a big victory for years,” he exulted, very moved.

A specialist in the classics, the 30-year-old from the Paris region, who comes from a family of cyclists, had already taken second place in Milan-San Remo. He brings his TotalEnergies team its first victory in the Grande Boucle since that of Lilian Calmejane in 2017.

It is also the third French victory in this Tour, after those of Romain Bardet (DSM-Firmenich Postnl) and Kévin Vauquelin (Arkéa-B&B Hotels) during the first two stages. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

This stage concludes, before the rest day on Monday, a great first week with also the record of victories of the Briton Mark Cavendish (Astana) (35 victory on the Tour) and the first of the Eritrean Biniam Girmay, as well as already some great battles for the yellow jersey.

After the Troyes stage, a total concentration of cycling, the general classification remains unchanged, with the Slovenian Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) maintaining a 33-second lead over the Belgian Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Steps), 1:15 over the Dane Jonas Vingegaard (Visma) and 1:36 over Primoz Roglic (Red Bull).

But the main favourites fought like rarely on the plain, like Pogacar who attacked twice in the last 22 kilometres without however managing to take off.

Evenepoel launched a very daring attack 70 km from the finish line, followed only by Pogacar and Vingegaard.

In a rare image on the Tour, the three men, isolated from the rest of the peloton, quickly returned to the breakaway before getting back up, cooled by the prospect of being cut off from their teammates on the dangerous wine-growing paths of the Aube, riddled with traps.

The breakaway, made up of strong riders, was then able to gain ground and in the end it was Anthony Turgis who proved to be the strongest.

Basketball star Franz Wagner has officially extended his contract with NBA club Orlando Magic and becomes one of the highest-paid German athletes in history.

This does not correspond to the maximum salary: the four-time NBA champion, who will play for Team USA at the Olympic Games in Paris, is giving up almost three million dollars.
