President Donald Trump is looking to expand his brand by having his name splashed on a multibillion-dollar football stadium in Washington, D.C.
“It’s what the president wants, and it will probably happen,” a senior White House insider claimed of the president’s naming rights wish to ESPN.
Trump, 79, has been heavily involved in the creation of the Washington Commanders’ new $3.7 billion home, and sources say he’s willing to sabotage the stadium deal if it won’t become part of his legacy.
The plan for the NFL stadium was given its final approval by the D.C. City Council on Sept. 19. The district, a federal body, is pitching in $1 billion toward the facility’s creation and will also lease the site of the old RFK Stadium for the Commanders to build the new field.
