Liverpool ‘in talks’ with Qatari owners as search for investment intensifies

It is no secret that John Henry and FSG are looking for a sale of all or part of our club and it has also been widely reported that interest from Qatar seems to be the most realistic option, at the moment.

This has now been furthered thanks to sports finance journalist Alex Miller, who wrote: ‘@LFC are in talks with officials related to QIA (Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund), no offers so far… other interested parties are still up for grabs’.

The perceived ideological gulf between Liverpool’s historic values ​​and Qatari human rights laws is something that is important to bear in mind, if this deal were to go through there would be widespread backlash from our supporters and beyond.

We have always expressed our disgust that clubs like Manchester City and Chelsea are funded by entire countries with questionable morality and may soon join them.

There is always a fair argument as to whether we can continue to fuel the success of the Premier League and Champions League with the current funds available and if there are realistic investors who are not morally corrupt in some way.

Time will tell who the other interested parties are and whether they are more likely to complete a takeover in Merseyside, but for now, we are watching from afar to see what will happen to our club and who will be the sole or part owners. of the keys at Anfield.
