Liverpool must avoid Cristiano Ronaldo issue as FSG could pose January problem

I would like to see Liverpool target a midfielder in the January transfer window, possibly even a striker or an attacking midfielder, who can change a game when things aren’t going our way. But the problem with that is the owners, Fenway Sports Group, are reportedly looking to sell the football club. Any transfer activity will surely depend on the FSG's future because they are unlikely to spend big money if they are looking to sell the club.

If a player is available for £50m or £80m FSG are unlikely to pay that type of money because it would be a waste if they are looking to sell, in my opinion. I think getting a player through the door in January will only happen if the club is sold or if there is a significant injection of cash from a shareholder.
