“FSG regularly receives inquiries from third parties wishing to become a part-owner. FSG has previously stated that – under the right circumstances – we can consider considering a new partner if it is in the interest of Liverpool as a club.”
“FSG remains focused on Livepool’s success, on and off the field.”
