Liverpool ownership group claim club is ‘not for sale’

Liverpool’s ownership group have made it clear that the club is currently not for sale, but they would be open to the idea of minority investment.

Fenway Sports Group were responding to a report in The Dail Mail which stated that there was interest from Sheikh Khaled Bin Zayed Al Nehayan, the cousin of Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour.

The report went on and suggested that the £2billion attempt to take over the club failed at the end of 2017.

“FSG have been clear and consistent in their stance that the club is not for sale,” Liverpool said in a statement.

“What the ownership have said again clearly and consistently is that ‘under the right terms and conditions we would consider taking on a minority investor, if such a partnership was to further our commercial interests in specific marketplaces and in-line with the continued development and growth of the club and the team.'”
