Liverpool could have more money than any other team in the world 

Liverpool seems to be determined to break the football business, at least that has been confirmed in the last few days when it became known that the English team would be for sale and that there were many millionaires interested in it. After this fact was known, a few hours ago, the first interested party came out, which could be worth approximately 5 billion dollars, a figure never seen before in the purchase of a football club.

The interested parties are investors from Dubai, who will make a second attempt to buy the Premier League team, after they made an offer in 2007, but it was not accepted by the owners of the club at that time. Currently, the team where the Colombian Luis Diaz plays belongs to Fenway Sports Group Holdings LLC (FSG) and together with Goldman Sachs Group and Morgan Stanley, they are analysing the possibility of giving this group of investors the club for the figure, which in Colombian currency, would correspond to more than 24 billion pesos.

That figure is almost double what FSG had been offered, as a group of Middle Eastern millionaires had asked the company last year to sell Liverpool for around £3 billion. For now, it remains to be seen what decision the current owners of the club will make, while the world's biggest investors are after one of the most popular clubs on planet earth.

Liverpool chairman Tom Werner has confirmed that Fenway Sports Group (FSG) is exploring the option of a sale, but is not pursuing it. Werner, speaking to the Boston Globe, confirmed Liverpool's intentions to sell, but added that there is no urgency to do so and that they have no timetable. "We are exploring a sale, but there is no urgency, we have no timeline and, as far as I know, it's normal," Werner said, weeks after FSG confirmed it intends to find new shareholders for the club or a new owner.

Werner's comments come a day after a similar statement from FSG partner Sam Kennedy, who said there had been "a lot of interest" from potential buyers. The sale of Liverpool may be motivated by the need for investment to compete with the other big European clubs and the increased competition that this generates, which may ultimately lead to a drop in revenue if the team does not qualify for the Champions League on a regular basis.
