Significant investment appears on the way for Liverpool as a consortium involving Amazon founder Jeff Bezos prepares to buy a minority stake in the club.
Bezos, who is the world’s third-richest person with a net worth of around $278 billion, is joined by Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin and former Queens Park Rangers co-owner Amit Bhatia in the investment group, which is set to purchase 30 per cent of Liverpool from current owners Fenway Sports Group (FSG).
