Liverpool is thought to be worth about £4.36bn ($5 billion). Since FSG and John Henry bought the club in 2010, Liverpool has had a lot of success on and off the field. Fans haven’t always liked that the club is owned by Americans. They worry that FSG will take money out of the club instead of putting it back into the team.

So far, Jurgen Klopp’s seven years as manager have put their minds at ease. In that time, Liverpool has won the Champions League and the Premier League. Online sportsbooks give them a +700 chance of winning it this year.
FSG said in a statement, “FSG has often heard from third parties that they want to become shareholders in Liverpool.” FSG has said before that, under the right terms and conditions, they would consider new shareholders if it was in the best interests of Liverpool as a club.
The Next Owner Of Liverpool FC Will Be Wealthy!
Liverpool are a very popular choice. They have returned to their former glory under Klopp and are now one of the biggest clubs in the world, not just England. For some, the money made from Premier League and Champions League TV rights is enough to make the investment worthwhile. However, with that money comes the responsibility of putting together a competitive team by spending wisely on transfers.
FSG, on the other hand, are more tolerated at Anfield than they are loved.
Before Klopp moved from Westphalia to Merseyside, they made a lot of mistakes in the transfer market and when hiring managers. Klopp’s big-name signings, like Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah, and Thiago, have done well at Anfield and turned the team from one that hoped to finish in the top four to one that now wants to win the title.
One could say that Manchester City’s billions are the only reason Liverpool hasn’t won the league every year. But trying to compete with a well-oiled machine like City is hard when you can’t spend as much as they can. This may be one reason why FSG are looking for more investors. Another could be the fact that the idea of the European Super League was a PR disaster.
