BARCAP REVEAL SERIOUS BIDDERS IN TO BUY LIVERPOOL

Liverpool FC does have various serious bids on the table for the sale of the club before the October RBS 8th deadline.

A senior source close to Barclays Capital believes there to be some interest in the club, with “as many as five bidders at in-depth stages of due diligence” and a “Hong Kong-based investor leading the race” to take over at Anfield.


The bank, however, appears unwilling to offer any financial support to the potential investors, with the source stating there is “no chance of Barcap becoming involved with the debt financing of any takeover”.

However, Barclays Capital are reported to be becoming increasingly frustrated with the current owners. “Unrealistic valuations are driving us [BarCap] insane,” said the source. The insider also accused the American duo of being “unreachable”.

Most papers had stated that once Kenny Huang had pulled out of a possible deal, there were no other interested parties involved in buying Liverpool FC, however, now according to The Sports Review, there are serious bidders out there.
Lets hope it true and that the club will the proper owners at long last.

  1. hope it is true and think it could be true:
    Because the bidders will have known about the deadline and are now just waiting to get the club for the cheapest price possible. That is probably why some mentioned their interest in August but then "withdrew" it again. The probably knew that the deal will be done in September/Oktober and wanted just register their interest...

  2. Hi John,
    sorry it's been a while since I commented but I wouldn't comment just for the sake of it. I find it strange that you have posted this just when everyone else had lost faith that the club would not be sold; I think there is a lot more to what you have posted I haven't anything concrete but there are vibes coming from inside the club which suggest something is on the move, and with the recent comments from Hodgson, who is currently talking a lot about how new owners must move the club forward "is he making a statement to the potential new owners", is he touting for funds? I'll let the loyal LFC fans read into what you have posted and what is currently in the media from our manager.
