The Baseball side estimated to be worth 2.8 billion
in talks to buy Notts County.

Good match.
Both play in stripes.
Both second best side in their city.

2.8 billion usd? I heard it was 3.4 according to Forbes.. who put the NYY brand at 660 million usd alone but their revenue at 516 million usd - 259 million of which apparently comes from gate receipts... which I can't help but think means the costs/figures have to be inflated because in all honesty, their attendance has apparently dropped and outside of the states very few countries have a genuine national interest in Baseball - Japan being the most prominent.  Apparently the Yankee Stadium cost 1.1 billion to build (seems extortionately large sum although probably the most likely) and they have a figure attributed to 'market' of  1.6 billion.. which again needs to be explained more and made a case for, especially as mentioned earlier if their revenue only hits 516 million USD.
