While a sale of the club was brought forward last November, the owner of Liverpool FC, Fenway Sports Group, has recently clarified its position regarding the future ownership of the Reds. If movements are not to be excluded in the short term, a total withdrawal from the American group is a hypothesis to be ruled out. At least in appearance…
Is Liverpool FC a club in the market? It is difficult to give a clear answer to this question in recent months. At the end of last year, Fenway Sports Group, owner of the Reds since 2010, published a press release indicating that it was studying all possibilities as to his future at the head of the club. A maneuver that has led to its share of speculation around a change of ownership at the head of the Reds, especially since two American banking establishments, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, had been commissioned to seek investors.
Faced with the various rumors swelling in recent months, the leader of FSG John Henry recently answered by email questions from the Boston Sports Journal concerning his intentions regarding Liverpool FC. “Do we intend to stay in England forever? No. Have we put Liverpool FC up for sale? No. Are we talking to investors about Liverpool FC? Yes” thus indicated the American leader. “Is something going to happen soon?” I think so, but it will not be a sale,” added the American leader.
