If it means that for any NFL game played in London he gets the proceeds, then why would any team agree to play in London if they would surrender their home team gates to a competitor?  If the teams that surrender their home game to London decided to play in Tottenham stadium instead, doesn't that defeat the purpose?

Is this a preemptive move in case another team kicks around the idea of moving to London?  Seems like the only team in dire need of a stadium at this stage is Buffalo.

Is he putting all of his sports investments into one big "pool," from which the Jaguars draw revenue?

Is this, as some have suggested, a type of leverage plan for a new stadium and Shipyards here?

I would venture to guess, that as the owner of the stadium, he would receive even more of the advertising,parking,concessions money and fee/rental use for other activities hosted at the stadium than you would get as opposed to a City/Municipal ownership would receive...There are many events held in Wembley that would bring a [BLEEP] pot full of money to the owner of the stadium...

I don't see this as a bad thing, to me it just looks like Mr Khan has found a way to make a ton of money in addition to the NFL and his other company...If I could own a NFL franchise and buy Wembley Stadium too I'd jump on it, and anyone here on this board would too...Why not make a few hundred million dollars in The United States, AND London too?

It's not used. He isn't going to be making back the 1 billion quickly. Why would they sell it if it made tons of money? They would just take the yearly income, unless someone offers well over market value.

No owner is giving a home game up and then not getting the revenue and giving it to Khan. He will get some small %.

Unless the NFL is going to start playing a lot of games there or a Super Bowl, this makes 0 sense.

Khan could sell to another owner of a team moving, but would the other owners like him making a move like that?

More than 1 game will be played there soon, then more or a demand for a new stadium and shipyards. While not an immediate impact, the writing is on the wall and it's going to happen unless the city does what he wants.
