Liverpool

Jeff Bezos consortium could be majority Liverpool shareholder within a year

The Guardian Football about 1 hour 1 mins read

1892 Holdings has option to increase shareholding
Group paid more than £2bn for initial 38% slice of club

1892 Holdings, the new investor in Liverpool, has first refusal to become the majority shareholder in the next 12 months should Fenway Sports Group decide to sell.

The consortium led by Amit Bhatia and including Amazon founder Jeff Bezos was believed to have bought 30% to one-third of Liverpool when the deal was announced on Friday. However, the agreement is for 38% of the Anfield club, meaning 1892 has paid FSG just over £2bn to become minority shareholders. The increased stake, first reported by the Athletic, still values Liverpool at about £5.5bn.
