Reliance Spokesperson Denies Claim Of Mukesh Ambani To Bid For Liverpool FC's Takeover

Earlier, a leading English daily reported that Mukesh Ambani, chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries, had entered the race to acquire Liverpool FC.

Reliance has said the speculative reports about billionaire Mukesh Ambani entering the race to buy English football team Liverpool FC are not true.
 
Earlier in the day, a leading British daily reported that there were rumours Ambani had enquired about the club but added that a few people connected to the Mumbai-based Indian multinational corporation they spoke to could not confirm the development.
Several media publications picked up the news.
 
A Reliance spokesperson, meanwhile, called the news “fake”.

What The Liverpool Report Said
 
Mirror.uk reported late Saturday that Ambani, the chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries, had enquired about the club.

The English Premier League giants have been put up for sale by their current owners Fenway Sports Group (FSG), who purchased the Merseyside club in October 2010 and has allegedly engaged Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to help them in selling the franchise. The FSG is eager to sell the club for 4 billion British pounds, according to 'The Mirror.

"There have been a number of recent changes of ownership and rumours of changes in ownership at EPL clubs and inevitably, we are asked regularly about Fenway Sports Group's ownership in Liverpool," FSG said in a statement, news agency PTI reported.

According to PTI, "Third parties expressing interest in becoming shareholders in Liverpool have repeatedly approached FSG. FSG has previously said that we would entertain additional shareholders under the correct terms and conditions if it was in the best interests of Liverpool as a club."

Under FSG, Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool squad has won the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, and European Super Cup in past few years.
