By db-admin
DBasia.news – Fenway Sports Group (FSG), the owners of Liverpool, are ready to release their stake in the Reds. Reportedly, the FSG has set a price of up to 4 billion pounds.
Fenway Sports Group (FSG) made a surprise by placing Liverpool in their sale list. In fact, in recent years the performance of the Reds have skyrocketed. Liverpool won the Champions League and Premier League. Although, this season Liverpool have been uncertain.
“FSG frequently receives statements of interest from third parties who wish to become shareholders in Liverpool. FSG has previously said, under proper terms and conditions, we will consider new shareholders if it is in Liverpool’s best interest as a club,” reads an official statement from the FSG.
From that statement, there is no objection from the FSG regarding the outstanding issues. That means, John Henry as the leader of FSG is ready to sell Liverpool which has been owned for 12 years. Previously, he bought shares of George N. Giller and Tom Hicks for 300 million pounds.
The next question is how much is the price set by FSG for Liverpool. According to reports from the UK, the FSG wants at least 4 billion pounds. If converted into Rupiah, the amount reaches Rp 72 trillion.
This value is not much different from the Forbes forecast. According to Forbes, Liverpool has a value of 4.45 billion dollars. The Reds are the fourth most valuable football club behind Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United.
Several names have began to be associated with Liverpool. Five of them are Elon Musk, LeBron James, Billy Beane, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, and Muhsin Bayrak.
