When considering the next potential owners of Liverpool Football Club, groups from America and the Middle East are considered the most likely options.
Few would have imagined, for instance, that Conor McGregor would be a contender to take over the reins from FSG.
Yet, the UFC fighter confirmed on Twitter that he had ‘requested my information’ on the matter after hearing of the Reds’ owners’ willingness to welcome investment.
I WOULD LOVE IT! I requested my information on this, yes. Soon as I heard. What a turn of events! What a club! @LFC https://t.co/HD0ELlhKOH
