Jon Bon Jovi may be moving closer to becoming an NFL team owner.
The “Livin’ on a Prayer” rocker, who’s interested in buying the Buffalo Bills, had a two-hour lunch with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in New York on Thursday.
“They were definitely talking business,” said a source, who reports the duo dined at power spot Fresco by Scotto.
“Jon was taking notes — he had a pen and paper with him at the table.”
Bon Jovi, a founder and former owner of the Arena Football League’s Philadelphia Soul, has joined Toronto-based investment group Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment in a bid to buy the Bills.
The Canadian group already owns the NHL Maple Leafs, the NBA’s Raptors franchise and MLS soccer club Toronto FC.
Said a source close to the singer, “It’s no secret that Jon’s passion is to become an NFL owner.”
Other potential bidders for the Bills — up for sale after the death of owner Ralph Wilson in March — include Donald Trump, former Bills quarterback Jim Kelly and former Buffalo Sabres owner Tom Golisano.
Sale of the franchise is expected to go for more than $1 billion.
