Sale of Liverpool, what it means for the club and how Manchester United could possibly follow.
Liverpool owner Fenway Sports Group (FSG) has put the Reds up for sale. It was a sharp reminder of the other side of top-flight football; clubs are viewed as assets and decisions are made in the best interests of stakeholders.
The American sports investment company said as much in its statement, a sentence of which reads: "FSG has said before that under the right terms and conditions we would consider new shareholders if it was in the best interests of Liverpool as a club."
