There has been a significant amount of buzz in recent days with several Middle Eastern owners linked with a move, as well as former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer.
FSG is believed to value the club at £4bn, meaning a large amount of investment would be needed from any interested party.
However, it is not yet clear if John Henry and company are inviting offers to take over the club entirely or if they are simply looking to split their share of the club with other parties.
The idea of someone with Ambani’s cash supply coming to Anfield is certainly an exciting idea for Reds supporters, especially when considering that Jurgen Klopp wants to complete the signing of Jude Bellingham, a player who will easily cost more than £ 100 million at the end of the season
However, the prospect of a new investor entering the club may also be a cause for concern considering the stability FSG have brought to the red half of Merseyside since their arrival in 2010.
