Liverpool could soon be at the centre of a major financial development. A consortium of investors has expressed interest in buying a minority stake in the club, with the name of one of the world's richest men, Jeff Bezos, also being included in the project.
According to Sky , the initiative is led by businessman Amit Bhatia and financially backed by the family of Indian billionaire Lakshmi Mittal. The group's objective is to invest in Liverpool by purchasing a stake from current owners Fenway Sports Group (FSG).
At the same time, Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, has been approached to join this project. However, so far there is no final agreement and talks are ongoing.
Liverpool is considered one of the most valuable clubs in the world, with a valuation exceeding $6 billion. This makes the English club a very attractive target for international investors.
For their part, Fenway Sports Group executives have acknowledged that they have received interest in a strategic minority investment, but have clarified that this is not a complete sale of the club.
If Bezos decides to invest, it would mark his first foray into the ownership of a professional soccer club. The American billionaire has been rumored to be investing in the world of sports before, but has not yet finalized any deals.
A potential investment from Jeff Bezos would be further evidence of the growing influence of global capital in European football, where the biggest clubs are increasingly attracting billionaires and investment funds from around the world.
