John Henry breaks silence on Liverpool sale amid Man Utd takeover bids and Tottenham rumours

Liverpool owner John Henry has broken his silence over a potential sale of Liverpool in the coming weeks and months amid links over new investment at the club. It comes as a changing landscape at the top of football continues to pan out, with new money entering the game.

Newcastle were bought out by the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia before Chelsea then underwent a takeover last year that was forced following sanctions against former owner Roman Abramovich by the UK Government in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. A US consortium between Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital took over in a rocky year that has seen plenty of action and scrutiny over their running of the Blues.

Over half-a-billion-pounds has been spent in the Premier League by the Blues new owners and while the club are languishing in mid-table, the investment and direction is clear. They aren't the only side that may see further external investment as Manchester United received bids for a potential takeover from the Glazer family.
