Both the evaluation and the record sponsorship deal are both good news for Victory, and it's something positive for the A-league as well at this point.

Yuck.
By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

Yuck is correct answer :)  https://josimarfootball.com/2023/07/03/the-777-football-mystery/From cocaine smuggling to threatening disabled people and kidnapping the children of drug addicted clients,...... great to know APL vetted the overseas owners carefully.

So,
1. 777 charge Victory a 'hefty' interest rate,
2. Cashless Victory pay it with shares so
3. 777 end up with 70% of the club without much more cash layout ?
is that how it works ?

Sevilla, for all their improbable triumphs in the UEFA Europa League, have lost close to 60 million euro over the last couple of years, and according to reports in the Spanish media, have transfer-listed their whole squad at the end of June in order to service the 90 million euro debt. Genoa has announced losses of 61.7 million euro for the 2021-22 season, whilst Vasco de Gama’s deficit was just under 22 million US dollars for the same period. Standard Liège did not fare any better in 2021-22, losing 20.2 million euro, and nor did Red Star, who were reported to be in the red to the tune of 2.4 million, a fortune for a club playing in the National, the third tier of the French football pyramid. Hertha BSC’s accounts for 2021-22 reveal a consolidated loss of 79.6 million euro ( compared to a 83.3 million for the previous year) which makes it easier to understand why Windhorst was keen to find a buyer. Last, Melbourne Victory FC was 4.5 million US dollars short of breaking even last season. Is this right ?

I remember years ago, being with mates at a Balkan club, the coke dealer was not only giving everyone a good time but at the end of the game the officals all came in to collect money off him and then also to hand out to all the players who hit their targets for the game :D

Crikey ! it is https://www.theage.com.au/sport/soccer/record-financial-loss-at-melbourne-victory-as-us-ownership-looms-20221231-p5c9kr.htmlMelbourne Victory lost $6.7 million and was in deep financial trouble just months before it struck a deal that could hand control of the club to a US private equity investor within five years. So bad were the financial problems at the A-League’s best supported club that Victory’s auditors warned there was “material uncertainty” it could continue as a “going concern”, the club’s 2021-22 accounts show.

+x+xAlso signed the biggest sponsorship deal in their history. A four year deal with Bonza, Yes. This is good news so this thread will only get four replies The private equity investor was given the option to own up to 70 per cent of the club within five years through an investment of up to $30 million, the documents show.
After four or five years, 777 Partners also had the right to walk away from Victory and be repaid the $30 million at a compounding interest rate of 10 per cent a year.
The deal would also give it a preferential position over existing shareholders if Victory was liquidated.
When the deal was announced, Victory chairman Anthony Di Pietro described it as a “strategic investment” that would “supercharge its growth strategy”.

Thankfully there was a lot of action taken at league and club level to ensure that MV's attendances/revenues shot right back up in the next season
