In October, shortly before the start of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, it became known that Liverpool were up for sale. With that, rumours began to emerge that a group of Qatari investors wanted to take over the Premier League club. The current owners, a group of American capital, argue that since the pandemic, the numbers have not been consistent, and since their acquisition in 2010, the figures have started to deteriorate since the coronavirus pandemic (early 2020s).

However, according to Ben Jacobs of CBS Sports, there is still nothing concrete as yet between the Qatari investors and Liverpool, noting that the only meeting between a Premiership club and Qatari investors was with Tottenham. Although QSI does want to make a long-term investment, they are still looking at the market they want to invest in, with South America also among the options.

"Football clubs are becoming very commercialised. Digitalisation is very important for us... the business models of these institutions are becoming very investment-friendly," CEO Mansoor Ebrahim Al-Mahmoud told Bloomberg. Although the Qatari investment group's strategy will be aggressive on the sporting front, they are ruling out a full takeover of a team like Liverpool, and have said they have yet to submit a bid for the Anfield outfit.

Sale to Qatar is complicated

The reality is that Liverpool is still at an early stage of the sale process and the FSG group remains "100% committed" to the club. Not much has changed since FSG's statement, although there have clearly been enquiries, including from investors who have also expressed an interest in Chelsea.
