Trump threatens to block NFL team's stadium deal unless they change name
Donald Trump has threatened to block a stadium deal for the Washington Commanders unless they change their name back to the "Redskins".
After years of playing in Maryland, the Commanders and the District of Columbia government agreed a deal earlier this year to build the American football team a new stadium at the site of the old RFK Stadium in Washington - where they played for more than three decades. However, the US president has now said he "won't make a deal for" the NFL team to move to a new ground unless they return to their former name.
He posted on Truth Social on Sunday: "The Washington 'Whatever's' should IMMEDIATELY change their name back to the Washington Redskins Football Team." Mr Trump also called for the Cleveland Guardians to revert their name to the "Cleveland Indians.
