Liverpool FC in talks for ₹57,800 Crore stake sale
Liverpool Football Club, one of the most successful teams in English football, is in talks for a major investment deal.
The current owners, Fenway Sports Group (FSG), are discussing the sale of a significant part of the club to a group led by Amit Bhatia, who is supported by the wealthy Mittal family.
This deal could make Liverpool worth over ₹57,800 crore (£4.7 billion), which would be one of the highest valuations ever for a football club.
FSG bought Liverpool in 2010 for much less, showing how much the club has grown.
The deal is part of a bigger trend of big investments in Premier League clubs.
Liverpool has won many trophies recently, including the Premier League and the Champions League.
If the deal goes through, it could help the club grow even more.
Liverpool FC's owners, Fenway Sports Group (FSG), are in talks to sell a substantial minority stake to a consortium led by Amit Bhatia and backed by the Mittal family.
The deal could value Liverpool at over ₹57,800 crore (£4.7 billion), one of the highest valuations ever for a football club.
FSG acquired Liverpool in 2010 for £300 million, highlighting the club's significant growth under their ownership.
The potential sale is part of a wave of high-value investments in Premier League clubs, following recent deals involving Chelsea FC and Manchester United.
Liverpool has won multiple trophies recently, including the Premier League in 2020 and 2025, and the Champions League in 2019.
