Sheikh Jassim has been tipped to bid for Liverpool after withdrawing from the race to take over Manchester United.
, his bid was worth £5 billion - almost double the club's market value of £2.6 billion - and included a commitment to wipe away existing debt and invest in infrastructure and recruitment.Sir Jim Ratcliffe has now agreed a deal worth between £1.3-1.5 billion to take a 25 per cent minority stake in United from the Glazers.
From what I am led to believe, they are very, very disappointed and angered at how this has played out. "What better way to respond than to get United's biggest rivals from down the road and throw all that money you were going to throw into Manchester United into making them pay for that decision not to sell to you."in February, principal owner John W Henry confirmed that a full sale was off the table, although FSG were in talks with potential investors.
And last month, it was announced that FSG had sold a minority stake - believed to be between 1.9 and 3.8 per cent - in Liverpool to US-based firm Dynasty Equity. The deal, according toGiven Henry's previous comments on a full sale, and the recent minority sale, it is unclear as to whether a potential Qatari takeover is realistic - but that may not stop them from trying.
