Resumo

  • O Seattle Seahawks está oficialmente à venda menos de duas semanas depois de conquistar o Super Bowl 60, em Santa Clara
  • O espólio de Paul G. Allen iniciou um processo formal de venda, cumprindo sua determinação de negociar seus ativos esportivos e direcionar os proventos à filantropia
  • O banco de investimento Allen & Company e o escritório de advocacia Latham & Watkins vão conduzir uma venda plurianual, que deve alcançar um valor recorde por uma franquia da NFL, enquanto o time permanece atrelado ao Lumen Field e à cidade de Seattle

Recém-saído de um segundo troféu Lombardi e de um desfile que parou o centro da cidade, o Seattle Seahawks se tornou, de repente, o ativo mais cobiçado do mercado esportivo. O Paul G. Allen Estate deu a largada em um processo formal de venda dos atuais campeões do Super Bowl, um movimento sem precedentes na NFL moderna e o capítulo decisivo do plano do falecido cofundador da Microsoft de liquidar seu império esportivo em prol de causas filantrópicas. Allen comprou a franquia em 1997 por pouco menos de US$ 200 milhões, impedindo sua mudança para o sul da Califórnia e, sob o comando de Paul e Jody Allen, o Seahawks deixou de ser coadjuvante na liga para se tornar candidato perene ao título e bicampeão do Super Bowl.

O espólio contratou Allen & Company e Latham & Watkins para tocar o negócio, em um processo que, segundo a franquia, deve se estender até a offseason de 2026, antes que qualquer comprador seja avaliado e ratificado por ao menos 24 dos 32 donos de times da NFL. Avaliações públicas colocam o Seahawks na faixa de US$ 6,6 a US$ 7 bilhões, com algumas projeções pós-título empurrando o valor para a casa das dez cifras, o que posiciona a venda para superar o Washington Commanders e até disputar o patamar de US$ 10 bilhões do Los Angeles Lakers. Com um contrato de longo prazo no Lumen Field, lotação máxima desde 2003 e o próximo ciclo de direitos de mídia da NFL a caminho, quem assumir o comando herda um candidato pronto, uma torcida e uma cidade totalmente engajadas e uma das plataformas mais poderosas da liga tanto para negócios quanto para filantropia.
