The amount in question is the highest ever paid to a football team – and by a huge margin: the biggest deal in football to date was the acquisition of Carolina Panthers in 2018 for $ 2.3 billion – less than half the amount of the current deal. In addition, this amount is the highest paid for any sports club in the history of sports in North America (i.e. the US and Canada).
