Liverpool Football Club are up for sale and it is now believed some Qatari and Saudi Arabia consortiums have made contact with current owners, Fenway Sports Group(FSG).
American consortium, FSG purchased Liverpool in 2010 from then honours, Tom Hicks and George Gillett after the Americans ran the club to the ground.
According to FanNation, since, the club have gone on to win its first Premier League title alongside a Champions League. Adding a Cup double last season takes it to four major trophies within the FSG era. The club also won a World Club trophy and a charity shield during this time.
However, it hasn’t all gone plain sailing in the last 12 years. FSG have attempted to brand the word ‘Liverpool’, create a European Super League, hike up ticket prices, put staff on furlough, and have failed to provide enough funds for transfers.
Daily Mail reports that Liverpool have entered talks with Saudi Arabian and Qatari consortiums to takeover Fenway Sports Group as owners. The sale of the club is potentially £3bn, despite FSG reportedly wanting more originally.
With that said, the club may be sold sooner than earlier thought.
