Robbie Fowler gives blunt verdict on potential Liverpool sale and sends FSG warning

Robbie Fowler FSG Darwin Nunez Jurgen Klopp Southampton Alisson

Fenway Sports Group have been 'very good' for Liverpool but the possible sale of the club is just business, according to Robbie Fowler.

The American consortium, who took control of Anfield back in 2010, caused quite a stir last week as news broke of a possible sale of the club. FSG themselves issued a statement that accepted they were looking for new investment but with the club now valued somewhere between £3-4billion - at least 10 times more than what they paid for it - a complete sale is a distinct possibility.

The development has sparked contrasting views amongst the Liverpool supporter base, with some enthused at the prospect of gaining a billionaire owner with money to spend and others more concerned about who will ultimately assume control of the club if FSG depart. But former Kop hero Fowler, insists that no-one can have any complaints about the situation either way.
