Las Vegas based tycoon Sheldon Adelson is planning to build casinos across several Premiership grounds, with Fratton being one of nine due for talks next month. If Pompey choose to accept the proposal it could net the club around 15 million in land rental and profits.


Adelson is chairman of Las Vegas Sands Inc and heads the Venitian hotel and casino complex in Nevada.
