It has been reported that Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez are ending their pursuit to buy the NY Mets after it became clear they were way too far apart on price.
The current owners, the Wilpon family, were looking for close to $2.5 billion. It has been previously reported that the power couple were looking for investors to buy the team for somewhere around $1.5 billion.
It’s no secret that Arod sees there’s tremendous upside in buying the Mets, and saw it as a huge business opportunity. Unfortunately for the couple, it’s just not working out. And the current circumstances with COVID-19 do not help.
Seems like this dream is back in the dugout for the celebrity couple.
