Tony Sage, owner of the top-tier Australian football (soccer) club Perth Glory FC, has walked away from buyout negotiations with a controversial cryptocurrency company.

According to a report from Australian news source The New Daily, Sage confirmed on Monday that a deal to sell an 80% stake in the team to the London Football Exchange (LFE) had fallen through.

LFE is a blockchain-based exchange that allows supporters to trade equity in their favorite clubs. Perth Glory FC would have been the company’s first-ever acquisition.
