Justin Ishbia has reached an agreement that may give him control of the Chicago White Sox by 2029, team owner Jerry Reinsdorf confirmed to Sportico. The agreement allows Reinsdorf, 89, to control the team for at least four more years. After 2034, Ishbia would have the right to buy the control stake. Ishbia and his brother Mat initially bought a mid-single-digit percentage of the team in 2021, and they have added to the total since then.
