On Monday night, Las Vegas Sands CEO Sheldon Adelson withdrew from the ongoing effort to finance a new $1.9 billion stadium in Las Vegas for the Oakland Raiders.
Now, Yahoo Finance has learned, Goldman Sachs is out as well.
Either that Review-Journal report was wrong, or the Raiders were wrong, or misled the NFL. A source close to the situation now tells Yahoo Finance that because Adelson is out, Goldman Sachs is also out.
Goldman Sachs indeed had a “commitment to finance a stadium with the Raiders and Sheldon Adelson in partnership,” says the source. Without Adelson, the partnership is over. There was not a commitment by Goldman to finance the stadium without Adelson.
