A consortium, including Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, has made progress in their negotiations to acquire a roughly 30% stake in Liverpool Football Club, according to BBC Sport. Led by British-Indian businessman Amit Bhatia, the group also includes Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin. Fenway Sports Group (FSG), Liverpool's owners, confirmed in a recent statement that the group had shown "interest in making a strategic minority investment in Liverpool Football Club."
Amit Bhatia, the son-in-law of Indian billionaire Lakshmi Mittal, has been connected to the club for 18 years before his stake was relinquished last month. Jeff Bezos, who is the fourth-richest person globally with an estimated net worth of $256bn, joined the consortium as the world's richest man. In 2010, FSG purchased Liverpool for £300m, and they had previously sold a minority stake to Dynasty Equity.
Liverpool recently became the highest-earning Premier League club for the first time, with Deloitte's analysis indicating record revenues of £703m for the 2024-25 financial year. The club's owners announced this news in February.
