Liverpool’s owners FSG are exploring putting up the club for sale with the American business group keen to sound out interested parties.
Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have been brought in to steer the process with FSG hoping to pocket an eyewatering sum to hand over the ownership reigns nearly 12 years after they bought the Anfield giants.
FSG’s statement, as reported by The Atheltic, has said the following :
“There have been a number of recent changes of ownership and rumours of changes in ownership at EPL clubs and inevitably we are asked regularly about Fenway Sports Group’s ownership in Liverpool.
“FSG has frequently received expressions of interest from third parties seeking to become shareholders in Liverpool. FSG has said before that under the right terms and conditions we would consider new shareholders if it was in the best interests of Liverpool as a club. FSG remains fully committed to the success of Liverpool, both on and off the pitch.”
FSG have been hard at work to ensure a hefty expansion of the famed Anfield venue while Liverpool’s success under the American owners, led by John W Henry, has been well documented ever since Jurgen Klopp was hired to the top job in 2015.
The Reds clinched Premier League glory, after a gap of 30 long years, while also securing Champions League and FIFA Club World Cup crowns and domestic success in the form of the FA Cup and EFL Cup.
