We’re NOT selling! Liverpool owner John Henry breaks his silence to insist the club ISN’T going to be sold – and says FSG are only talking to investors about a minority stake despite fans’ complaints
Liverpool owner John Henry has confirmed that he has no plans to sell the club.
It was revealed back in November that Reds owners Fenway Sports Group were looking for new investment.
This came as they sought to recapitalise the business ahead of a potentially costly time but there were also reports that a full sale was being considered.
The Reds are valued at around £3.75bn and have been links with bids from across the world, including the Middle East.
However, Henry, who rarely speaks out publicly, has insisted a sale is not a possibility any time in the near future.

Henry allowed for some questions via email from Boston Red Sox reporters ahead of the first day of spring training in Florida.
‘I know there has been a lot of conversation and quotes about LFC (Liverpool Football Club), but I keep to the facts: we merely formalized an ongoing process,’ he said.
‘Will we be in England forever? No. Are we selling LFC? No. Are talking with investors about LFC? Yes. Will something happen there? I believe so, but it won’t be a sale. Have we sold anything in the past 20+ years?’.
