Liverpool FC in talks to sell minority stake to Mittal-backed consortium

Liverpool FC is in discussions to sell a minority stake to a consortium backed by Lakshmi Mittal, according to a report monitored from a public feed by Novexa News.

The group is led by British-Indian investor Amit Bhatia, who is described in the feed summary as the son-in-law of Indian steel billionaire Lakshmi Mittal. No additional terms of the proposed transaction were provided in the material reviewed, and the feed did not state how large the potential stake would be or whether an agreement has been reached.

The development comes as Premier League clubs continue to attract interest from wealthy investors seeking exposure to top-tier football brands. Liverpool, one of English football’s most prominent teams, has previously drawn attention from global buyers and capital partners because of its large fan base, commercial reach and international profile.

At this stage, the available information is limited to the fact that talks are under way. The public feed does not identify any valuation, timeline or formal announcement from the club or the consortium. It also does not include comment from Liverpool FC or from representatives of the investors involved.

Based on the monitored public feed, the report indicates that discussions are focused on a minority investment rather than a full sale, suggesting the club could be looking for outside capital while keeping control of its football operations. No further details were supplied on how the proceeds, if any, would be used.
