Amazon founder Bezos nears deal to buy stake in Liverpool, reports say
A consortium that includes Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is close to agreeing a deal to acquire a stake of about one-third in Premier League club Liverpool, multiple media outlets reported on Monday.
Sky News reported that the consortium is being led by Amit Bhatia, the son-in-law of steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal and a former shareholder in English second-tier club Queens Park Rangers, and that Liverpool owner Fenway Sports Group (FSG) could announce a deal as early as this week.
Michael Edwards, who was widely credited with helping build the squad that won Liverpool's first English league title in 30 years in 2020, left his role as chief executive officer of football at Fenway Sports Group in July.
