Shafaqna English– Liverpool’s owners, Fenway Sports Group, stated on Friday(14 Aug 2026) that a consortium involving Amazon’s Jeff Bezos has signed a binding agreement to acquire a minority stake in the club, marking a significant development in the club’s ownership structure.
A person familiar with the matter indicated that the purchased stake is roughly one-third of the club. British press reports have put the deal’s value at over £1.5 billion, which values Liverpool at approximately £5 billion ($7 billion).
The Fenway Sports Group, which acquired Liverpool 14 years ago for £300 million, will remain the majority owner and will preserve its authority over the club’s operational decisions after the deal is completed.
