Coalition Including Bezos Seeks 30% of Liverpool
Reports indicate that an investment alliance including Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, and Eduardo Sávieron, one of Facebook's founders, is close to purchasing over 30% of Liverpool Football Club for a valuation of $6 billion (approximately £4.4 billion). The acquired stake will remain a minority holding, with Fenway Sports Group, the club's owner since 2010, continuing to have control. This investment ranks among the largest share deals in football and reflects the significant growth in the club's value, which has increased from around £300 million when "FSG" acquired it in 2010 to its current valuation. The alliance aims to strengthen American capital presence in the Premier League, leveraging the global fan base and high club revenues, while maintaining FSG's current operational control.
