Us group makes liverpool approach

Liverpool Football Club - General Discussion

Postby lakes10 » Thu Dec 02, 2004 10:28 pm

An American consortium has confirmed it is holding talks over a possible takeover of Liverpool.
The L4 group said in a statement it has approached Liverpool's financial advisors Hawkpoint about either making an offer or investing in the club.

The consortium is thought to be backed by the Kraft family, who own Super Bowl champions New England Patriots.

Meanwhile, the club's plans for a new 60,000-capacity stadium is set to be discussed at its AGM on Thursday.

Mike Jefferies, one of the men behind L4, told the Financial Times: "L4 exists with the purpose of conducting ongoing discussions with the owners of Liverpool FC.

"There are a number of different constituent elements, both individuals and entities, that we believe have a direct connection with the culture and heritage of the club, as well as the experience, resource and appetite to get the club back to where we believe it deserves to be."

Liverpool businessman Steve Morgan and a Thai consortium have previously been linked with bids for the club.

Meanwhile, Liverpool chairman David Moores and his chief executive Rick Parry are expecting to be grilled by supporters over the price of the stadium project at the AGM.

The new ground in Stanley Park will cost about £110m - and is already £30m over budget.

The club will also announce record losses of £21.9m for the financial year ending in July - with £10.7m paid to former manager Gerard Houllier and his backroom staff who left in the summer.
