Finnish entrepreneur Thomas Zilliacus has admitted he would be interested in buying Liverpool if his bid to takeover Manchester United ends in failure.
The Helsinki-born businessman, whose net worth is not publicly known but is believed to be less than rival Red Devils bidders Qatari businessman Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani and British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe, claimed earlier this week that he had submitted a bid to buy United.
Chairman of the social media group novaM Group, he has submitted an offer through XXI Century Capital - an investment firm owned by his holding company. And the 69-year-old wants to buy half of the club with the other half bought by fans, who would be able to buy a stake in the club and have an equal say in decision-making via an app.
