Bezos and Saverin join a consortium buying a minority stake in Liverpool - AOL

Liverpool says a consortium led by Amit Bhatia, featuring Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, has entered a definitive agreement to buy a minority stake in Premier League club Liverpool. The Fenway Sports Group (FSG) statement confirmed the sale to 1892 Holdings. Sky News reports Bhatia’s group has taken more than a 30% stake, valuing Liverpool at roughly $6 billion. FSG paid 300 million pounds (about $400 million) to take over Liverpool in 2010 and also owns the Boston Red Sox. The investment arrives as Liverpool has won the title in 2020 and 2022, ending a 30-year drought and tying Manchester United.
