Liverpool owner denies club is for sale!

John Henry, the owner of Liverpool, said that he does not plan to sell the club competing in the English Premier League after his group announced last November that it was considering the sale. Liverpool owner American John Henry has denied the English giants are up for sale despite seeking fresh investment in the club. Henry said that he does not plan to sell the club competing in the English Premier League after his group announced last November that it was considering the sale. Henry's Fenway Sports Group (FSG) said in November it would "consider new shareholders if it was in the best interests of Liverpool as a club." The Fenway Sports Group, which acquired the club in 2010 for 300 million pounds ($358 million), announced three months ago that it was studying the option of bringing in investors if this was "in the interest" of Liverpool. Following the group's statement, club chairman Tom Werner said there was no reason to rush through any potential deal. "I know there has been a lot of conversation and quotes about LFC (Liverpool Football Club), but I keep to the facts," Henry told the Boston Sports Journal in an interview published online Sunday. "We merely formalized an ongoing process. Will we be in England forever? No. Are we selling LFC? No. Are we talking with investors about LFC? Yes. "Will something happen there? I believe so, but it won't be a sale. Have we sold anything in the past 20-plus years?" British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe and Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani have publicly revealed their interest in United with bids expected to reach around $6 billion.
Manchester United's owner Glazer family is considering selling the club. It was confirmed that the club received two offers from Ineos, owned by British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe, and from Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani, son of the former Qatari prime minister.
