“Liverpool” club may soon enter a new era.
On Monday morning, news came from England out of clear skies – “Liverpool” owners “Fenway Sports Group” (FSG) have decided to sell the club, as revealed by “The Athletic” journalist David Ornstein.
The official statement says: “Recently, there have been many changes in ownership among Premier League clubs and rumors, inevitably touching us as well.
FSG recently received attention from third parties to become the main shareholders of “Liverpool.” FSG previously stated that, under the appropriate conditions and terms, we would consider introducing new principal shareholders if it were in the best interests of the club,” said “Fenway Sports Group.”
Recently, “Reds” fans have been dissatisfied with certain FSG decisions, such as the decision not to invest in a central defender this summer.
“Fenway Sports Group,” led by John William Henry, also holds shares in US sports clubs – the Pittsburgh “Penguins” and the Boston “Red Sox.”
FSG has owned “Liverpool” for over 12 years. In October 2010, American businessmen purchased the English club for 300 million euros.
