In an interview with Times Radio, Errol Musk, the father of the world’s richest man, claimed his son would “like to” buy Liverpool Football Club, based at Anfield. However, he clarified that this doesn’t mean the purchase is actually happening. His remarks have stirred a mix of excitement and uncertainty among Liverpool fans.
Matt Lawton, Chief Sports Correspondent for The Times, countered these rumors, stating that John Henry and his Fenway Sports Group (FSG) have no intention of selling the club, which they have owned since 2010.
Since rescuing Liverpool from the troubled ownership of Tom Hicks and George Gillett, FSG has had a polarizing impact.
While their approach isn’t as lavish in spending as some of Europe’s other top clubs, they’ve overseen significant developments, including expanding Anfield’s capacity from 45,000 to over 60,000 and relocating the club’s training facilities to a state-of-the-art complex in Kirkby.
While some fans may feel it’s time for FSG to step down, it seems unlikely that Musk will be taking over the club anytime soon.
