Three billionaires who could buy Liverpool and win the league next season

The Athletic reported earlier today that Fenway Sports Group (FSG) has put Liverpool up for sale.

FSG has previously investigated opportunities but has never pursued them. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley will help with the buyer-finding process.

For the time being, they are only inviting buyers, but it is unclear whether an outright sale will take place.

Since taking over in October 2010, FSG has led Liverpool through a successful period. They paid £300 million for the club from George Gillett Jr. and Tom Hicks.

Jurgen Klopp was hired, and he has led them to every possible title while reestablishing the Reds as a European football powerhouse.

FSG has stated that they are fully committed to Liverpool’s success, both on and off the field. However, with the club inviting offers, we examine some potential buyers.

Elon Musk

Elon Musk is one of three billionaires who could buy Liverpool and win the Premier League next season.

Musk hinted in August that he was interested in purchasing Manchester United. “I’m buying Manchester United ur (sic) welcome,” tweeted the 51-year-old.

Later, the billionaire clarified that he was not purchasing any sports teams. He explained that his previous tweet was part of a long-running Twitter joke.

Aside from that, Musk is a daring man who might be interested in bringing his innovation to the world’s most popular sport.

Musk has admitted to being a Manchester United fan as a child, but seeing him as the owner of Liverpool would be intriguing.

Mukesh Ambani

The business magnate tried to buy Liverpool before FSG did in 2010, and he may return for the club.

Ambani and Subrata Roy reportedly indicated back then that they were willing to pay off Liverpool’s £237 million debt in exchange for a 51 percent stake in the club.

Ambani is the chairman and CEO of Reliance Industries Ltd, a Fortune Global 500 company and India’s most valuable company in terms of market capitalization.

He is India’s wealthiest person and the elder brother of billionaire Anil Ambani.

Bill Gates

The Microsoft founder reportedly received an offer to buy Liverpool in 2010, but he did not respond.

The agreement was revealed in court papers from a case involving Mill Financial, former co-owner George Gillett, and the Royal Bank of Scotland.

Liverpool’s former chairman, Sir Martin Broughton, confirmed the offer to Gates. When asked about it during a deposition in 2017, Broughton replied, “correct.”

Gates may consider a new project now that he has more time. Liverpool is a far more appealing investment prospect now than it was in 2010, and he could easily afford it.
