Liverpool chairman Tom Werner makes 'not for sale' statement after major Boston Red Sox deal

Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group have no plans to sell the Boston Red Sox and have confirmed their interest in expanding their portfolio.

Since it emerged at the beginning of November that FSG were mulling over their long-term options at Liverpool, which include both a partial sale of the club to a minority partner or a full sale of their shareholding - but only at the right price, north of $4bn (3.3bn), their desire to keep hold of the Red Sox Major League Baseball team was called into question by some areas of the Boston fan base and the US media.

FSG have owned the Red Sox since 2002, delivering four World Series' during that time (2004, 2007, 2013, 2018), with the team having endured an 86-year drought on that front prior to the arrival of John Henry, Tom Werner and Co.
