Report: Sale of Liverpool FC possible – dpa

DAccording to a media report, the sale of Liverpool FC to a new owner has become possible.

As the portal “The Athletic” reported, the US Fenway Sports Group (FSG), as the current owner of the Premier League club coached by Jürgen Klopp, has created a full sales prospectus for potential buyers.

However, whether the Reds will actually be sold remains to be seen. The group, which also owns the Boston Red Sox baseball team, has “frequently received expressions of interest from third parties wishing to become shareholders in Liverpool,” FSG said in a statement to The Athletic. It has previously been said that “under the right conditions we would consider new shareholders if it was in the best interest of Liverpool as a club”. For the time being, however, they want to be fully committed to the success of Liverpool FC: “Both on and off the pitch.”

FSG bought the traditional English club in October 2010. Jürgen Klopp has been a coach at Anfield since 2015. The 55-year-old led Liverpool to a Champions League win in 2019 and a Premier League title in 2020, among others. The commitment of the FSG is not undisputed. Last year, for example, they campaigned for the introduction of the European Super League.
