For months, reports about the sale of the Washington Commanders have dominated the headlines. An article by a US media outlet is now causing a significant reaction from the franchise

The sale of the Washington Commanders has been making headlines in the NFL for months. Most recently, reports have been mounting that owner Daniel Snyder may not even want to sell the team.

An article by “FrontOfficeSports.com” has now caused a clear reaction from the franchise. Reporter A.J. Perez had reported that the sale “stalled this week” and that the delay was due to “several factors”. The biggest obstacle is said to be the owner’s reluctance to sell the team to Amazon boss Jeff Bezos.

Statements that the team did not want to let stand like that. “”Front Office Sports” published a blatantly false report tonight about the ongoing process of a potential Commanders transaction,” the statement, which was circulated via email, read.

Commanders take a stand

“The team will continue its efforts to protect the confidentiality and integrity of the process. Upon completion of the process, the position of the Commanders will be made known by the team. Transactions of this nature are highly confidential and only a few people are involved in the inner workings of the process. Anonymous reports that appear to be factual should therefore not be believed. “

Interesting: When countless reports surfaced last weekend that Bezos was prohibited from making a bid for the NFL team, the franchise did not respond.
