John Barnes has backed Liverpool FC owners Fenway Sports Group and believes that any potential investment or sale of the club will only be done with its best interests at heart.
Shockwaves were sent through the football world on Monday when reports emerged suggesting that the Anfield club's owners were prepared to sell up after 12 years of considerable success on Merseyside. A statement from FSG stopped short of signalling an intention to sell their prized asset but confirmed that they were open to investment offers from third parties.
The news has ignited a range of different views on what this could mean for Liverpool and the intentions of their current owners, but Anfield legend Barnes was keen to praise the job that the current custodians have done.
