A joint Saudi-Qatari partnership is "planning" to offer Fenway Sports Group in the excess of £4bn to acquire ownership of Liverpool Football Club, according to reports from the Middle East.
Following information obtained by the Daily Mail last weekend that the Reds' American owners had "held talks" with two Middle-East-based consortiums over a potential takeover of the club, Jordan-based publication Albawaba has claimed that former Saudi Arabia international Saeed Al-Owairan has publicised plans for a possible Saudi-Qatar combined offer for Liverpool.
Speaking on the Egyptian programme Remontada, Albawaba verified that Owairan confirmed the construction of a partnership between the two Middle-Eastern countries. However, no additional details were revealed on how a potential bid for the 19-time league title winners could look.
