A major player for Jürgen Klopp will not continue with the Reds

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's future lies in leaving Liverpool. According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the midfielder is clear that he will not renew his contract with the Reds and that he will take advantage of the upcoming end of his contract (June 2023) to look for new professional challenges. It seems clear that the midfielder's decision has a lot to do with his delicate sporting situation. The Portsmouth man is currently playing a very minor role in the plans of Jürgen Klopp, who has only used his services in four official matches this season.

Liverpool chairman Tom Werner confirmed on Friday that Fenway Sports Group (FSG) are exploring the sale of the English club, although he insisted there was "no urgency" after it emerged earlier this month that they were looking to attract new investment, without ruling out the possibility of a sale.  "We are exploring a sale, but there is no urgency, and, as far as I'm concerned, it's business as usual. As a result, we could be in administration for quite some time," Werner told the Boston Globe.

FSG partner Sam Kennedy also revealed that there has been significant interest from both potential investors looking to buy the club and those seeking a minority stake. "It is early days in terms of exploring possibilities for possible investment in Liverpool. There has been a lot of interest from a number of potential partners who are considering investing in the club," he said.

FSG bought Liverpool for more than 345 million euros in 2010. Forbes now values the club at around £3.5 billion, and a weak pound currently makes the Premier League club more attractive to foreign investors. One of the most successful football clubs in history has been put up for sale by its owners. It is Liverpool, the British city club, which has six Champions League trophies to its name and has won the English Premier League 19 times, including the 2021-2022 season.

Liverpool, which has been in American hands for a number of years, is reportedly undergoing an audit to gauge the interest of potential buyers. According to some experts, the deal could be worth as much as 5 billion dollars. This would be a bargain, considering that the current owners paid a mere 344 million dollars for the ownership of the club 12 years ago.
