I’ve been saying Liverpool all along. Now I read their owners are looking for a buyer(s).

Lock it in.

Usmanov to buy Liverpool? Not a chance!

Hardly a fixer upper is it. If they have already turned down 2 billion (which is supposedly overvalued by about half a billion), how much would it take to buy and how much possible profit would you ever see from it? TV deals would have to keep going ballistic and they would need to start winning things, lots of things.

It would also be doing the dirty on Farhad, you don't see your friend buy his dream house and then decide to build a drop in centre for smack heads and loud music enthusiasts right next door.

Over and above all of that, having just sold a minority stake in a club he had little influence over, I can't see him looking to buy an almost identical minority stake for the same price.
 
I’ve just read that they refused to sell to Arabs and are not for sale, so where did you read that?
It is down here in Australia.

Liverpool's American owners open to selling off minority investment
Updated 8 hours ago
The Premier League club was responding Thursday to the Daily Mail newspaper reporting that a relative of Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour was exploring a takeover in the last year that valued Liverpool at 2 billion pounds ($3.5 billion AUD).
The pursuit of Liverpool did not progress. The 18-time English champions were bought in 2010 by the Fenway Sports Group, which also owns the Boston Red Sox, for 300 million pounds.



"FSG have been clear and consistent in their stance that the club is not for sale," Liverpool said in a statement. "What the ownership have said - again clearly and consistently - is that 'under the right terms and conditions we would consider taking on a minority investor, if such a partnership was to further our commercial interests in specific market places and in-line with the continued development and growth of the club and the team."'
Liverpool reached its first Champions League final in 11 years in May but lost to Real Madrid. The club was England's biggest spender ahead of the new season with a net transfer outlay of around $300 million AUD. After a fourth-placed Premier League finish in May, Jurgen Klopp's side has opened the new season with back-to-back victories as Liverpool chases a first English title since 1990.
