‘We have everyone behind us’: Canberra tables fresh bid to join A-League – Sydney Morning Herald
A consortium of local and foreign investors has submitted an offer to FFA to enter the league – potentially at the expense of Central Coast.
“They don’t look at the price of things, they look at the value of things. A licence that was worth between $14m-17m last year isn’t worth as much any more. And they believe in Australian football and Australian footballers.
“The market for licences is soft in Australia and we’ve got someone ready to invest. Why would you turn them away, especially right now?”
FFA has been contacted for comment.
