The 49ers would be ready to sell a piece of the team to three families.
Sportico report that the team will sell About six percent of the franchise for Khosla, Griffith and Deeter families. The amounts of investments made by each family are not known, but they give the club an assessment of more than $ 8.5 billion.
The owner of the 49ers, Jed York, said in the League meetings earlier this year that the team regularly had an interest in buying part of the team and that they would explore any opportunity that made sense.
The three families have a history of venture capital and Vinod Khosla is the co-founder of Sun Microsystems.
