Liverpool's ownership landscape could soon shift dramatically, with a consortium fronted by businessman Amit Bhatia and backed by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos reportedly closing in on a deal to acquire a stake in the Premier League champions, according to Sky Sports.
The report suggests Fenway Sports Group, who remain Liverpool's controlling shareholder, are preparing to confirm the agreement as soon as this week. While full details of the deal's size and structure haven't been disclosed, Sky Sports frames it as a "strategic minority stake" purchase rather than a takeover of the club outright.
Bezos, the world's wealthiest individuals and Amazon's founder, would represent a major financial name entering Anfield's boardroom sphere, though FSG's grip on overall control looks set to remain intact for now.
Given the scale of interest surrounding any investment involving Bezos, scrutiny will inevitably grow over what influence the consortium could wield and how this fits into FSG's long-term plans for the club.
As it stands, this remains an unconfirmed but advanced process, with an official announcement understood to be imminent.
