The San Francisco 49ers are the latest NFL team to explore selling up to 10 percent of the franchise, according to multiple media reports on Wednesday.

The 49ers are considering selling a 10% stake, potentially valuing the team at $9 billion, as NFL teams embrace private equity deals.

The San Francisco 49ers are weighing a 10% stake sale at a valuation of over $9B, which would make it one of the world's most expensive sports teams, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter.

The San Francisco 49ers could soon be adding a minority stakeholder to the team's ownership group. According to Bloomberg, the 49ers are exploring the possibility of selling 10% of the franchise. The team would be seeking roughly $900 million for that 10% share,
