Fenway Sports Group, the American firm that has owned Liverpool FC since 2010, is selling roughly 30% of the club to a consortium including Jeff Bezos and Eduardo Saverin, the Facebook co-founder. The deal values Liverpool between $6 billion and $8 billion, with the stake priced at approximately $1.8 billion. FSG originally bought the entire club in 2010 for around $300 million, representing a roughly twentyfold increase in valuation over fifteen years. FSG, led by John Henry, retains majority control of the club, with final terms expected within a month. Fan groups have voiced concerns about billionaire involvement, reflecting broader debates about wealthy investors in English football.
