John Henry claims he is not selling Liverpool

• John Henry is the owner of Liverpool.
• He claims he is not selling the Premier League team.
• His remarks were released before Liverpool’s match against Real Madrid.

John Henry, the owner of Liverpool, claims he is not selling the Premier League team, but he does anticipate some investment.

The Reds’ owners since 2010, Henry’s Fenway Sports Group (FSG), said in November that they “would consider new shareholders.”

Later, Tom Werner, the chairman of FSG, stated that the club’s owners were “exploring a sale” but could “continue their stewardship for quite a while.”

“Do we promote LFC? No, “the Boston Sports Journal, according to Henry.

“Are you discussing LFC with investors? Yes. Will there be an event there? Although I think so, there won’t be a sale.”

The American was participating in an email-based question and answer session.

FSG has recently enlisted Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs in the process of investing in Liverpool after being open to the idea for a number of years.

We merely formalised an ongoing process, Henry said. “I know there has been a lot of discussion and quotes about LFC.

His remarks were released before Liverpool’s match against Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 matchup on Tuesday at Anfield.

After winning their last two games, the Reds enter the match ranked eighth in the Premier League.

After the contentious ownership of Tom Hicks and George Gillett, FSG acquired Liverpool in a £300 million deal.

LeBron James, a professional basketball player from the United States, purchased a 2% stake in Liverpool for £4.7 million in 2011.

Since then, he has grown to be a minor partner in FSG, the company that also owns baseball team Boston Red Sox.

A private investment company called RedBird Capital Partners acquired a stake in FSG in March 2021 for about $735 million (£533 million).
