The Fenway Sports Group,have however said that they are looking for new investors in the club. Liverpool’s owner John W. Henry said that Fenway Sports Group has no intention or interest of selling the Merseyside club despite the formalising a search for investment in the club.
For the very first time of breaking his silence since FSG appointed the new bankers Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to embark on a minority partners as part of a sales process. This was what Henry said when he was anticipated of being in control for the foreseeable future goal.
""I know that there has been a lot of conversation and digital quotes about Liverpool Football Club, but keeping and adjusting to the facts that we are merely formalised in the ongoing process,"" Henry said.
"" Are we going to be in England forever? Capital NO!!!. Are we going to sell LFC? Capital NO!!! as well. Are we going to talk with investors about LFC? Capital YES. Will something actually happen there? I believe so, but it won't be in the aspect of selling it. Have we sold anything in the past 20+ years if I may ask?""
Henry’s comments echoed on those who made it privately at the highest level of the club when the ''Liverpool for sale'' story lingered around last November.
However, there is no doubt that the FSG invited such sales talk or even certainly failed to quash it as well with some mixed messages when the PR in the Boston had refused to rule out a full preemption of the club.
The fact Henry is more willing to speak openly about the process now might suggest a lack of interest in a full steal- eschewal at the kind of position that would have tempted FSG to discharge the club they bought in 2010.
Unlike Chelsea and Manchester United, Liverpool’s possessors noway set a deadline for implicit stab. Indeed their current process trying to find an investor is an extension of one that has been in place for several times, with Henry open about dealing shares in Liverpool.
Before this season, Liverpool president Tom Werner said FSG anticipated to remain in charge at Anfield ‘ for quite a while ’.
We ’re exploring a trade at this time but there’s no urgency, no time frame for us to do so, and as far as I ’m concerned in this matter, it’s business as usual, Werner told the Boston Globe in November, the review report in which is possessed by Henry. One outgrowth is that it could be our continued stewardship for quite a while.
When appointing the investment bankers Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley seems to have been amounted to a fishing passage to really assess the Liverpool’s request value and assess if a partial or full trade is most palatable to the leading shareholders
