Robbie Williams’ $90 million, four-album deal with EMI is coming to a close, and the singer’s management team is looking around for a better deal. The former Take That member’s managers are currently hunting out investors to buy the rights to Robbie’s yet to be released album, tour earnings and sponsor money, all for more than $80 million. One of his advisors said “Obviously we are talking to several record companies about a new deal for Robbie, but we are also looking at talking broadly to all potential investors, including financial institutions.” Considering how flaky he’s been lately, good luck with that.
