Jeff Bezos and Eduardo Saverin near Liverpool investment deal
Summary

A consortium involving Jeff Bezos and Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin is reportedly in advanced negotiations to acquire about one-third of Liverpool FC's ownership. The potential investment values the club at approximately $6 billion. Fenway Sports Group would maintain its majority stake following the deal, which represents a significant shift in Liverpool's ownership since FSG took control in 2010. Businessman Amit Bhatia leads the consortium, which reflects the growing interest of wealthy investors in Premier League clubs. This movement comes as Liverpool continues to enjoy a strong commercial presence in global football.
