The deal is the first of its kind struck by the Trump Organisation since Donald Trump's term as president ended at the beginning of last year.

NYT said that though the deal's financial terms were not disclosed, the spokesperson confirmed the cost of the project stood at $1.6 billion.

News of the agreement comes as Trump fights legal problems back home, including tax fraud charges and a probe into the 6 January attack on the US Capitol.

Despite the legal tumult, Trump looks poised to announce a third presidential candidacy.
