Liverpool's 38% minority stake set to be sold

The current owners of Premier League club Liverpool are in a major sale negotiation that would change the club's ownership structure. According to the English press, the club's 38% minority stake has reached the final stage of being transferred to a strong consortium.

The cash from the sale is expected to be channeled into new global sports investments. Rumors suggest the money could be headed for Formula 1. It is reported that the club's owners are willing to let go of a figure above 2 billion pounds (about 88 billion TL) for backers who want to join Cadillac, the US-based team preparing to enter the F1 grid.

The most striking detail in the talks is the possibility of a complete change of ownership. The draft agreement reportedly includes a binding option requiring Liverpool's remaining shares to be transferred to the consortium as well, before August 2027.

The current owners bought the club in 2010, rescuing it from debt for about 300 million pounds. Over the past 16 years, Premier League and Champions League titles have raised the club's brand value by billions of pounds. With this historic sale, they are expected to step away from football and move into motorsport.
